Tanabata nigit is a japanese holiday meaning "Festival of the 7th." It is known as this becausein legend, the milky way is a river that seperates two lovers, and they can only see each other on the 7th day of the 7th month each year.
During the festival, you make a wish, write it down and tie the paper to a bamboo tree.
I only found out about this today, and dont know of any other customs that go along with it. Sorry i couldnt post this earlier.
Have a great Tanabata night!
