Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena, and evolved from the worship of the moon in autumn night in ancient times. In traditional culture, the moon and the sun are the same, and these two alternate celestial bodies become the objects of ancestor worship. The Mid-Autumn Festival celebration originated from ancient people's sacrifice to the moon, which is the legacy and derivative of China people's custom of sacrificing to the moon. Sacrificing to the moon is a very old custom in China. In fact, it is a ritual activity of the ancients in some places in ancient China to "Moon God". According to research, "Mid-Autumn Festival" was originally set on the day of autumnal equinox in the twenty-four solar terms of the Ganzhi calendar. However, due to the change of the calendar, the lunar calendar (summer calendar) is used, and the date of the August and autumn equinox in the summer calendar is different every year, and there may not be a full moon. Later, the "Moon Festival" was transferred from the twenty-four solar terms in the dry calendar to the fifteenth day of August in the summer calendar (lunar calendar). Mid-Autumn Festival is a synthesis of autumn seasonal customs, most of which have ancient origins. 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.
