Introduction to Mid-Autumn Festival: Mid-Autumn Festival began in the early years of Tang Dynasty and prevailed in Song Dynasty. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it had become one of the major festivals in China, which was as famous as the Spring Festival. Influenced by China culture, Mid-Autumn Festival is also a traditional festival for overseas Chinese in some countries in East and Southeast Asia, especially local Chinese. Since 2008, Mid-Autumn Festival has been listed as a national statutory holiday. On May 20th, 2006, it was listed in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage by the State Council.
2. Origin of Mid-Autumn Festival: The origin of Mid-Autumn Festival is related to agricultural production. Autumn is the harvest season. The word "autumn" is interpreted as "autumn when crops are ripe" In the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, crops and various fruits are maturing one after another. In order to celebrate the harvest and express their joy, farmers regard the Mid-Autumn Festival as a festival. "Mid-Autumn Festival" means the middle of autumn. August in the lunar calendar is a month in autumn, and the 15th is a day in this month. Therefore, the Mid-Autumn Festival may be a custom passed down from the ancient Autumn Newspaper.
Mid-Autumn Festival, after dinner, the family will enjoy the moon, tell their children the story of the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon, the origin of moon cakes, and tell their parents about their recent work. This is the meaning of moon cake reunion.
In the name of festivals, everyone can buy gifts for their parents, which will make them more acceptable and will not say that we spend money indiscriminately. Let children get Mid-Autumn Festival gifts in the name of festivals, feel the charm of traditional culture, give themselves a day off in the name of festivals, lean on their mothers' shoulders and enjoy the comfort of slowing down.
On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is very bright. The ancients regarded the full moon as a symbol of reunion, so August 15 was also called "Reunion Festival". Throughout the ages, people often use "full moon" and "lack of moon" to describe "joys and sorrows", and vagrants living in other places also rely on the moon to express their affection.
In the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai's poem "Looking up, I found it was moonlight, and then sinking back, I suddenly remembered home" and so on, "He knows that the dew will be frost tonight, and the moonlight at home is so bright!" Written by Du Fu, there is also "Jiang Nanan spring breeze is green, when will the bright moon shine on me?" In the Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi wrote all the eternal songs. Mid-Autumn Festival is an ancient festival, and it is an important custom to offer sacrifices and enjoy the moon.
Ancient emperors had a social system of offering sacrifices to the moon in spring, and folks also had the custom of offering sacrifices to the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Later, it was more important to enjoy the moon than to sacrifice it, and serious sacrifice turned into light entertainment. The custom of enjoying the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival prevailed in the Tang Dynasty. Many poets wrote poems about the moon in their masterpieces. In Yue Bai, the activities of enjoying the moon in the court and among the people were more extensive in the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
So far, there are many historical sites in China, such as Yue Bai Altar, Moon Pavilion and Moon Tower. The "Moon Altar" in Beijing was built during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, and was used for royal sacrifice to the moon.
Whenever the moon rises in the Mid-Autumn Festival, a box is set up in the open air, with moon cakes, pomegranates, dates and other fruits on the console table. After Yue Bai, the family sat around the dining table, chatting while eating and enjoying the bright moon. Now, the activities of offering sacrifices to the moon in Yue Bai have been replaced by large-scale and colorful activities of enjoying the moon by the masses.
