Mid-Autumn Festival used to be a very important festival. Why is it gradually ignored? Due to the progress of people's thinking and cognition, with the slow development of society, the Mid-Autumn Festival is defined as a feudal superstitious activity, so it is slowly forgotten. In this regard, I have the following thoughts:

1. What is Mid-Autumn Festival? What is the origin of Mid-Autumn Festival?

The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, also known as July 30, is an important festival in China. Taoism calls it Mid-Autumn Festival, and folks call it Ghost Festival. In ancient times, people pinned their hopes on the gods and ancestors for a bumper harvest and good weather. People choose to worship their ancestors and burn incense and paper on this day. As a result, the Mid-Autumn Festival has become an important folk festival to worship ancestors, and has gradually been described by the younger generation as Ghost Festival, and even spread.

Second, traditional festivals in China have been declining. Should we vigorously develop China's traditional folk culture?

With the progress of society and people's thoughts, many traditional festivals in China gradually declined. Nowadays, many young people don't understand the traditional customs of the older generation. It can even be said that these people have destroyed many traditional customs of the post-90s and post-00s. Therefore, the inheritance of traditional festivals in China and the development of traditional culture in China now need all of us to maintain and learn together. We can't let these traditional cultures decline and die out.

Third, we should correctly understand the traditional festivals in China and carry them forward!

As sons and daughters of China, we can neither lose the traditional culture left by the older generation nor misinterpret the meaning of this culture. Although we live in the city now, it is inevitable that we will be sad to sacrifice our ancestors at festivals, but we can't sacrifice or burn paper money on the roadside or even in the community. We should remember our ancestors correctly and use environmentally friendly methods.
