Explanation

Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Star Festival, "seventh evening"
Festival of the Weaver Girl, Tanabata 七夕
..... referring to the double-date of the Asian lunar calendar, the 7th day of the 7th month; now celebrated 7 July in some places, on 7 August or even later in others.
It used to be at the change of the season from summer to autumn (yukiai 交合）, celebrated on the night of the 6th of August until early morning of August 7, when autumn had started.
It has been celebrated since the Heian period in Japan, with the wish that young girls would become proficient in weaving and keeping a good home.
. kyuu Tanabata 旧七夕 Old Calendar Star Festival .
Before introducing the kigo in more detail,
read the old legend:
Tanabata was inspired by the famous Chinese folklore story,
"The Princess and the Cowherd". Some versions were included in the Man'yōshū, the oldest extant collection of Japanese poetry.
Orihime (織姫, Weaving Princess), daughter of the Tentei (天帝, Sky King, or the universe itself), wove beautiful clothes by the bank of the Amanogawa (天の川, Milky Way, lit. "heavenly river"). Her father loved the cloth that she wove and so she worked very hard every day to weave it. However, Orihime was sad that because of her hard work she could never meet and fall in love with anyone. Concerned about his daughter, Tentei arranged for her to meet Hikoboshi (彦星, Cow Herder Star) (also referred to as Kengyuu (牽牛)) who lived and worked on the other side of the Amanogawa.
When the two met, they fell instantly in love with each other and married shortly thereafter. However, once married, Orihime no longer would weave cloth for Tentei and Hikoboshi allowed his cows to stray all over Heaven.
In anger, Tentei separated the two lovers across the Amanogawa and forbade them to meet.
Orihime became despondent at the loss of her husband and asked her father to let them meet again. Tentei was moved by his daughter’s tears and allowed the two to meet on the 7th day of the 7th month if she worked hard and finished her weaving. The first time they tried to meet, however, they found that they could not cross the river because there was no bridge.
Orihime cried so much that a flock of magpies came and promised to make a bridge with their wings so that she could cross the river. It is said that if it rains on Tanabata, the magpies cannot come and the two lovers must wait until another year to meet.

According to the old Chinese calendar, this festival is placed in the “Autumn” category of the Haiku Saijiki.
Now it takes place on one of these double-days, the seventh day of the seventh month. In Sendai, it is celebrated at the beginning of August.
Qixi in China, Chilseok in Korea and That Tich in Vietnam.
The origin of this Tanabata Festival goes back to a legend in China.Two stars, Orihime (Vega, as a weaving girl) and Kengyu (Altair, as a cowherd) who loved each other were separated by another star's jealousy, could meet only once a year in The Milky Way on July 7. According to the Kodansha encyclopedia, the legend was believed and observed by women who prayed to the Weaver Star (Vega) for success in love and proficiency in such skills as sewing and calligraphy in ancient China.
http://leahi.kcc.hawaii.edu/~jclub/festival/tanabata.htm
It is the custom to write some wish on a small and long slip of colored paper and hang it on a large bamboo pole for the gods to see and take care of your wish. Writing a Tanabata slip is very popular in kindergardens and schools. This year, 2004, many children were writing a wish to the effect that peace should come to the world and the war in Iraq end soon.
Some say that the name Tanabata is a compound word of Tana and Hata. Tana means shelf or trellis, and hata means weaving. In ancient times, a maiden serving the god of weaving had to weave a cloth for the god of weaving to drape on a shelf or trellis near a river or lake.

In Sendai it is customary for the Tanabata star festival to make a crane from folded paper with a Tanabata wish in it. This is hung to the bamboo.

Worldwide use
Many haiku poets worldwide feel that the MILKY WAY should be a kigo for summer, if at all.
But the milky way is strongly related to the Tanabata festival according to the Asian lunar calendar, so even in Japan, where TANABATA is mostly celebrated in July, it is still a kigo for early autumn.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Die drei großen Feste von Nordjapan, Tanabata (in Sendai), Kantoo (in Akita) und Nebuta (in Aomori), gehören in eine weitere Gruppe von Festen. Diese haben sich aus den Zeremonien des buddhistischen Totenfests Obon entwickelt.
Tanabata, das Fest der Sternennacht, ist das Fest der Liebenden und basiert auf der chinesischen Legende von einem einfachen Schafhirten und einer Prinzessin ... aber ach, die armen Liebenden durften sich nur einmal im Jahr treffen, wenn die Sterne richtig standen. Das ist der 7. Tag im 7. Monat, wenn die Weberin Vega und der Hirt Altair sich auf der Milchstraße treffen. Für junge Leute ist dieses Fest natürlich besonders wichtig; viele Mädchen kleiden sich in bunte Baumwoll-Sommerkimonos yukata auf der Suche nach einem Hirten.
Jung und Alt schreibt Wünsche auf lange bunte Zettel, die an einen Bambuszweig gebunden werden: je ein Wunsch auf einen Zettel. Diese Bambuszweige sind der Ursprung der modernen Straßendekorationen. Noch heute wird in den Dörfern Bambus aus dem nahegelegenen Wald geschlagen und z. B. im Kindergarten oder auf dem Dorfplatz aufgestellt. Viele Familien machen sich auch ihren eigenen Bambuszweig und stellen ihn im Garten auf.
Das Tanabata-Fest in Sendai wird vom 6. bis 8. August gefeiert, einen Monat später als in den meisten anderen Orten Japans. Nach dem alten asiatischen Mondkalender sei dies der bessere Tag für das Sternentreffen.
Die Dekorationen entlang der Haupteinkaufsstraßen von Sendai sind riesig und bunt, ursprünglich waren es lange Bambusstangen mit Zetteln aus Japanpapier dekoriert, heutzutage sieht man aber immer häufiger Plastik und Fantastik.
Bei der großen Parade ziehen die Bewohner der Stadtviertel in bunten Kostümen mit Gesang und Tanz durch die Straßen von Sendai. Zum donnernden Abschluss wird am Abend ein Feuerwerk veranstaltet.

HAIKU
. Sadogashima 佐渡島 Sado Island - Introduction .
A famous haiku by Basho
荒海や佐渡によこたふ天河
araumi ya Sado ni yokotau amanogawa
This must be the masterpiece of three-dimensional haiku with bipolar structure. That is, Sado connects the wild sea (Earth) and the Milky Way (outer space) to demonstrate an extensive perspective, or three-dimensional field.
The Milky Way (according to an ancient legend associated with Star Festival) excites pity for the Altair-Vega couple. They can meet only once a year at the time of the Star Festival called Tanabata in East Asia. Sado recalls the sadness of noble people who were exiled there, such as the famous Noh-dancer Zeami or Saint Nichiren (Buddhist). The violent sound of wind-whipped sea arouses great fear in readers.
The images of the Milky Way, Sado and wild sea work in synergy to induce readers to feel hopeless sorrow. Those who are familiar with European history may recall Saint Helena, and the exiled Napoléon Bonaparte, to strengthen their interpretation. The haiku can be interpreted adequately without knowledge of the Star Festival of Tanabata.
Araumi ya: ... wild sea
Sado ni yokotau: ... stretching to Sado Isle
Amanogawa: ... the River in the Sky (Milky Way (literally)
source : Susumu Takiguchi
quote
Bashō left a prose piece about Sado island,
twenty or so miles off the Japan Sea Coast in Niigata:
From the place called Izumozaki in Echigo, Sado Island is eighteen li away on the sea. With cragginess of its valleys and peaks clearly visible, it lies on the side in the sea, thirty-odd li from east to west. Light mists of early fall not rising yet, and the waves not high, I feel as if I could touch it with my hand. ... from past to present, a place of exile for felons and traitors, [Sado Island] has become a distressing name.
As the evening moon sets, the surface of the sea becomes quite dark. The shapes of the mountains are still visible through the clouds, and the sound of waves is saddening.
source : Utamakura: Storied Places - Dennis Kawaharada
The translation of Amanogawa, ama no kawa, (river of heaven) might lead to the notion that Basho used a self-made metaphor to discribe this heavenly phenomenon, but he did in fact not, he just used the common and normal Japanese word for "Milky Way".
With the introduction of the milky way in a haiku about this day of this festival, Basho also might have built a bridge to the next festival of the souls, O-Bon.
Kigo can thus work like the pearls of a rosary to bind together the associations of a Japanese reader.

By drawing on Sado's historical associations, Basho was able to infuse the landscape (kei) with a particular emotion or sentiment (joo), to view the landscape through the eyes of the past, as he did at utamakura. Sado, an island across the water from Izumosaki (Izumo Point) was known for its long history of political exiles: Emperor Juntoku, Nichiren, Mongaku, Zeami and others.

More translations :
- Reference - amanogawa -
araumi ya Sado ni yokotau amanogawa
This haiku has the cut marker YA at the end of line 1.
With the reverse structure of Japanese language, lines 2 and 3 can be translated as
the Milky Way
stretches to Sado
The scene seems to be pure shasei, Basho just telling us what he has seen from the beach. And yet . .
quote
"Basho was standing on the western shores of Japan looking out upon the night sea . . . Miles away, lay Sado Island . . . a place where numerous people endured the enforced solitude of exile. Stretching out across the sky was the Milky Way (Heaven's River).
"As a metaphorical river, it flows in internal tranquility above the storms of the sea and of human life, sparkling with a scattered brightness, more pure than gold.
Basho, the island, and everything on earth seem to be alone yet together under the stream of stars. Over the storm is silence; above the movement is a stillness that somehow suggests the flow of the river and of time; and piercing the darkness is the shimmering but faint light of stars."

uchuuten - this is a pun with uchooten 有頂天 extasy (sanskrit: bhavagra).
This kind of punning was favored by the Teimon school of haikai.
Written in 寛文7年, Basho age 24
THIS might be the translation of Yuasa, but I am not sure:
Unable to meet
At their annual rendezvous,
The two stars fret
In the fretful sky of July.
