"Cowherd and Weaver Girl" is a famous Chinese folk tale about the love between Niulang (the Cowherd) and Zhinu (the Weaver Girl). They are separated by the Milky Way due to the disapproval of Zhinu's mother, the Queen Mother of the West. The couple is allowed to reunite only once a year on the seventh day of the seventh month in the lunar calendar, known as the Qixi Festival. The story symbolizes the enduring nature of love and the challenges faced by couples. It highlights themes of devotion and sacrifice, as Niulang and Zhinu overcome obstacles to be together, inspiring many generations in Chinese culture.
