Why did the ancients grieve for autumn?

"Women think of men when they feel sunny in spring, and men think of women when they feel cloudy in autumn". The poets in ancient China were mostly men, so autumn was poetic. Of course, there is another explanation: the sad autumn complex is the result of the collective unconscious accumulation of our ancestors. During the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, people living in the Yellow River valley mainly lived on agriculture. Because of their extremely low productivity, few surplus labor products, and a few slave owners and rulers are extremely tyrannical and greedy, people's lives are extremely difficult. Under the harsh exploitation, the people resisted and vowed to "come to you and live in a happy land", but after all, they were weak and a large number of people were arrested and killed. The time for executing prisoners is autumn. "Zhou Li Qiu Guan Scotty" called the Scotty in charge of punishment "Qiu Guan", which can be seen. Autumn has become the season when rulers are furious and kill people. Why not make the evil wind miserable and make the working people sad? In addition, at that time, various tribes and small countries often waged cruel wars and killed each other in order to compete for land. Countless people died in battle, their homes were destroyed and displaced, and the broad masses of people were miserable. And the war always comes in autumn, the so-called "autumn soldiers on the battlefield." "The Book of Rites and the Moon Order" records that "the autumn dreams of the moon, and then it is slaughtered". On the day of beginning of autumn, the emperor personally instructed the three princes, nine ministers and princes to meet the autumn in the western suburbs ... The generals chose soldiers and generals, which was simple and handsome, and they were full-time active duty ... "In autumn, people were caught in the blood, fear and pain of war. How can they not feel dejected? Moreover, the heavy corvee in ancient times began to be levied in the Spring and Autumn Period, mainly in autumn. "The Book of Rites and the Moon Order" said: "The Moon of Mid-Autumn Festival can also be used to build cities, cities, pits and warehouses. "Autumn is suitable for recruiting people to do all kinds of corvees. The ruler said that people can "spring back to Qiu Lai" when they go to serve, but this is just a lie. Many people who go to serve often don't put it back in autumn, and often go there and never come back. No one came back, and the autumn of the new corvee began again. Autumn has become a day of missing, missing home, where are you going? Missing, the pain of death, and the hatred of separation are all condensed in autumn. Autumn is just hopeless yearning and endless waiting. It's sad for a person to face the sadness of autumn. China traditional literati's sad autumn complex is the result of the collective unconsciousness of ancestors, which contains rich cultural details and also reflects the profound influence of China's world outlook and ethical values on China literati's life consciousness.
