Brief introduction of Mid-Autumn Festival manuscripts (1);

August 15th of the lunar calendar is the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival in China. This is the middle of autumn, so it is called Mid-Autumn Festival. This is also the second largest traditional festival in China after the Spring Festival.

In China's lunar calendar, a year is divided into four seasons, and each season is divided into three parts: Meng, Zhong and Ji, so the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The moon on August 15 is rounder and brighter than the full moons in other months, so it is also called Mid-Autumn Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, August Festival, Moon Chasing Festival, Moon Worship Festival, Daughter's Day or Reunion Festival, which is a popular traditional cultural festival of many ethnic groups in China.

On this night, people look up at the bright moon like jade in the sky and naturally look forward to family reunion. Wanderers who are far away from home also take this opportunity to pin their thoughts on their relatives in their hometown. Therefore, Mid-Autumn Festival is also called "Reunion Festival".

It is said that the moon is closest and brightest to the earth that night, so there is a custom of drinking and enjoying the moon since ancient times; The daughter-in-law who goes back to her parents' house will go back and forth to express her happiness and good luck.

In some places, such as Ningbo, Taizhou and Zhoushan, the Mid-Autumn Festival is scheduled for August 16, which is related to changing it to "Lantern Festival on the 14th day of the first month and Mid-Autumn Festival on the 16th of August" in order to prevent attacks by officers and men of the Yuan Dynasty and Zhu. Besides, in Hongkong, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will hold another carnival called "Chasing the Moon" in Izayoi.

Brief introduction of Mid-Autumn Festival manuscripts (2);

China has a vast territory, a large population and different customs, and the customs of the Mid-Autumn Festival are even more varied, with strong local characteristics.

In Pucheng, Fujian, women have to cross nanpu bridge to live longer during the Mid-Autumn Festival. In Jianning, hanging lanterns on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival is a good sign to ask the Moon Palace for children. People in Shanghang County celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, and their children often invite the Moon Palace Chang 'e when they are in Yue Bai. Before the Mid-Autumn Festival in Yue Bai, Jinmen people will worship God.

There is a Mid-Autumn Festival Yue Bai in Chaoshan, Guangdong Province, mainly for women and children, and there is a custom that "men don't Yue Bai, women don't sacrifice stoves". At night, when the bright moon rises, the women set up a case in the yard. The table is full of delicious fruits and cakes, silver candles are burning high, cigarettes are around, and then Yue Bai.

Burning towers on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival is also very popular in some places. The tower is about 1 to 3 meters high, mostly made of broken tiles, with a tower mouth at the top, which is used for fuel. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, it will ignite and burn. The fuel is wood, bamboo, chaff, etc. The flames are blazing and spectacular.

There are many special Mid-Autumn Festival customs in some places. In addition to enjoying the moon, offering sacrifices to the moon and eating moon cakes, there are dragon dances in Hong Kong, piling towers in Anhui, Mid-Autumn Festival in Guangzhou, burning towers in Jinjiang, moon-watching in Shihu, Suzhou, moon-dancing by Dai and Miao, moon-stealing dishes by Dong and dancing by Gaoshan people.

Nowadays, the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival is far less popular than it used to be. The activities of offering sacrifices to the moon in Yue Bai have faded away, replaced by colorful people's entertainment activities to enjoy the moon. Besides eating moon cakes, they are still very popular. Ask the moon for wine, celebrate a better life and bless relatives far away. "I wish people a long time, a thousand miles * * *".
