- It is one of the five seasonal festivals and is a star festival.
It is said that on this day, which occurs only once a year, Orihime (the Weaver Girl) and Hikoboshi (the Cowherd) have a date above the Milky Way, and on this day the maiden weaves kimonos and places them on a shelf to welcome the gods, praying for a good harvest in the fall and for improvement in her artistic skills.
Tanabata was originally an event held on July 7th of the lunar calendar, which means that it falls in August in the Gregorian calendar.
The founder of the Horiuchi family was Horiuchi Jyosa (1612-1699), a scholar of Japanese classics, who is said to have learned the tea ceremony from Yamada Sohen.
