摘要
在东南地区闽、浙、赣、台诸省,七月七日不仅是乞巧节,还被视为"魁星生日",七日之夕,女子拜织女求手巧,男子拜魁星求功名。东南地区的七夕魁星崇拜始于宋代,是随海上贸易而来的西亚风俗与中土七夕节俗相互融合的结果。魁星崇拜源于西亚的天狼星崇拜,在西亚被视为文人保护神的天狼星,传入中国之后,就演变为主司科场功名的文运之神了。
In southeast China,such as Fujian,Zhejiang,Jiangxi and Taiwan,July 7th is not only considered as Chinese Valentine's Day,but also the birthday of Kuixing( 魁星). In the evening of July 7th,women worship Vega( 织女) for skillful and men worship Kuixing for fame. The custom of worshiping Kuixing in southeast China began in the Song dynasty,which was mixed by the custom of West Asia and Central China. The origin of Kuixing worship was the Sirius worship in West Asia. Sirius,which was regarded as a protector of the literati,had became the god of official career when transmitted into China.
