Romantic QiXi Quotes to Make Her Heart Soar!

Popular Quotes for QiXi that Make Her Heart Soar!

七夕 (Qīxī), also known as the Chinese Valentine's Day, tells the story of the Weaver Girl (织女, Zhīnǚ) and the Cowherd (牛郎, Niúláng). Zhīnǚ, a celestial weaver, and Niúláng, a humble mortal, fall deeply in love and marry. Their happiness is short-lived, as the Queen Mother of the West (西王母, Xī Wángmǔ) separates them, deeming their union inappropriate. Zhīnǚ returns to the heavens, leaving Niúláng on Earth.
Despite the separation, their love endures. Each year, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, a magical bridge of magpies forms across the Milky Way, allowing them to reunite for a brief moment. This poignant reunion is celebrated during 七夕, symbolizing enduring love and devotion. This year, QiXi falls on 10 Aug 2024.
