Altair and Vega
The Legend of the Magpie Bridge is an ancient tale from Chinese folklore which ties together the constellations of Lyra, Cygnus, and Aquila.
Altair is a star in the Aquila constellation and represents a poor shepherd boy called Niu Lang.
The star Vega in Lyra represents a weaver girl named Zhi Nu.
Niu Lang and Zhi Nu fall in love, despite their parents utterly forbidding it.
The meet in secret, and all was well until their families found out and separated the two young lovers.
The reason for their relationship being forbidden has been lost to time.
In same versions of the story the shepherd and weaver are neglectful of their chores, in other versions the boy is a mortal whereas the girl was created by the gods.
No matter which version of this ancient story - one detail remains consistent.
Niu Lang and Zhi Nu are kept apart by a river.
