Chinese painting of rose by Master Lan, Pi-Shan

With best wish for the Chinese Lover’s day ！

The 7^th of lunar month is the Chinese Valentine’s day,
this is a famous love story about the girl,
who is a weaving maid, daughter of the king, live in heaven,
and a boy, who is a poor cowherd, living in the earth.
They love each other so much,
yet by many forbidden reasons, not able to see each other.
Only once a year the magpies make a bridge from earth to heaven,
so the boy can meet the girl.
The weaving maid is known as the star ‘Vega’
and the cowherd is know as the star: ‘Altair’;
in the lunar June 7^th,
Vega and Altair is most close in distance in the milky way.

Today is the day of Lunar 7^th of June,

why don’t you look up to your sky in the evening,

and find out if Altair and Vega is closer?
