CHINESE FESTIVAL
"THE MAIDEN'S FESTIVAL" FALLS ON THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE
SEVENTH MOON (AUTUMN). IT IS JUST LIKE YOUR ST.
VALENTINE'S DAY. THE FESTIVAL IS CELEBRATED WITH
MAGNIFICENT DISPLAYS OF NEEDLEWORK.
THE UNMARRIED GIRLS WILL OFFER JOSS STICKS AND FRUITS
TO THE GODDESS VEGA. IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE GODDESS
WILL BLESS THEM AND GRANT THEM GOOD AND DEVOTED
HUSBANDS.
