What are the main contents of the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon's 20 words?

The Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon is a myth in ancient China. It tells the story that Chang 'e was forced by Pang Meng. In desperation, she ate an elixir given to her husband Hou Yi by the Queen Mother of the West and flew to the Moon Palace.

Chang 'e is the moon fairy in China mythology. In Shan Hai Jing, Hou Yi and the wife of the Emperor of Heaven in the Middle Ages were called Heng E (Heng E) because of her extraordinary beauty. In the Western Han Dynasty, in order to avoid Liu Heng, Chang 'e was changed to Chang 'e, and some people called it Chun Hu.

The origin of Mid-Autumn Festival:

The Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena and evolved from the worship of the autumn moon in ancient times. At first, the festival of "Sacrificing the Moon" was held on the "Autumn Equinox" of the twenty-four solar terms in the Ganzhi calendar, and later it was moved to August 15th in the summer calendar (lunar calendar). In some places, the Mid-Autumn Festival is set on August 16 in the summer calendar. Since ancient times, Mid-Autumn Festival has had folk customs such as offering sacrifices to the moon, enjoying the moon, eating moon cakes, playing with lanterns, enjoying osmanthus and drinking osmanthus wine. It has been circulating for a long time.
