Mid-Autumn Festival, Lantern Festival and Dragon Boat Festival are also called the three traditional festivals in China. Investigating the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival is closely related to myths and legends such as "the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon", "Wu Gang cutting Guangxi" and "Jade Rabbit smashing medicine". Therefore, the folk customs of Mid-Autumn Festival are mostly related to the moon. Watching the moon, Yue Bai and eating reunion moon cakes all originated from this. 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, and many poets wrote poems about the moon in their masterpieces. In the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Yue Bai's court and folk activities to enjoy the moon were even larger. 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 Now, the activities of offering sacrifices to the moon in Yue Bai have been replaced by large-scale and colorful activities of enjoying the moon by the masses.

The story about the Mid-Autumn Festival: Jade Rabbit tinkers with medicine.

This legend was first seen in Dong Escape from Han Yuefu: "The Jade Rabbit knelt for a long time and pounded toad pills, and presented a jade plate to your majesty. Take this medicine and you will get a fairy. " According to legend, there is a rabbit on the moon, as white as jade, so it is called "Jade Rabbit". This kind of white rabbit holds a jade pestle and kneels down to pound the medicine into toad pills. Taking these pills can make you live forever. Jade rabbit is probably the earliest playmate of Chang 'e in Guanghan Palace.

Summary: The stories of the first three Mid-Autumn Festival are full of myths and legends. As for the relationship between the three, there is a saying: According to legend, Yi got the elixir of life from the Queen Mother of the West and gave it to her for safekeeping. When Feng Meng heard about it, he stole it, but if he didn't steal it, it would hurt Heng 'e. In desperation, Heng E swallowed the elixir of life and flew to the sky. Unable to leave the village, Heng E stayed at the Moon Palace. Lonely and unbearable in the Guanghan Palace, he urged WU GANG to cut down the osmanthus tree and let Yutu pound medicine, hoping to make it a soaring medicine, so that he could return to the world as soon as possible and reunite with Iraq.
