【Being under a starlit sky.】

The light from the Deneb which we've seen just now was generated 2.000 years ago when Christ was born,and Japan was in the Jomon period.In short,the light from a star is the one from the past.✨

By the way,the day of July 7 is in the middle of the rainy season,so it seems the date isn't suitable for the Star Festival.☔

However,the ceremony is the one in the lunatic calendar.July 7 in the lunatic calendar is equal to mid-August in the solar calendar.☀

The Star Festival dates back to the Nara Era.It's said that the ceremony was introduced into Japan from China.⭐

The original form of the Star Festival was mixed with the other ceremony of purification 禊ぎ in a farming village,then a bamboo of decoration for the ceremony was floated on a river.😃

It's said that it's in recent years when we learn to decorate the bamboo with strips of papers.😚
