The Mid-Autumn Festival is a major traditional festival in China.It is celebrated on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month every year and is now listed as a legal holiday.The myths and legends of the Mid-Autumn Festival include Chang"e flying to the moon, the jade rabbit making medicine, and Wu Gang breaking the laurel.

Chang"e flies to the moon

It is said that in ancient times, a man named Yi got an elixir of immortality from the Queen Mother of the West, but he was reluctant to give up his own.The wife did not take it.But his wife, Chang"e, was afraid of her old appearance, so she secretly swallowed the elixir, and on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, she flew to the Moon Palace in the heaven and never returned to the human world.The poet Li Shangyin once wrote, "Chang"e should regret stealing the elixir, and the blue sea, blue sky, night and night heart."

There is also a legend about Chang"e flying to the moon.It is also in ancient times.After getting the elixir, Yi did not take it, but let Chang"e keep it.As a result, he was coveted by a villain who took advantage of Yi to go out.At that time, he secretly ran to Yi"s house and robbed the elixir.In order to protect the elixir, Chang"e swallowed the elixir in crisis and flew directly to the Moon Palace, separating it from Yi Xianfan since then.

The Jade Rabbit makes medicine

It is said that when Chang"e was flying to the moon, she was in a hurry and could only pick up a white rabbit.On the night of the full moon in August and fifteenth, we can see the white rabbit pounding medicine in the moon palace.In some areas, it is said that the elixir of immortality that the moon rabbit pounded was the elixir that Chang"e wanted to make for Yi.After this myth spread to Japan, it became a jade rabbit pounding rice cakes.In the Jin Dynasty, there was a poet Fu Xuan who wrote, "What is there in the middle of the month, the white rabbit is pounding medicine.".

Wu Gang Zhegui

According to legend, there is a god named Wu Gang in the sky.He made a mistake and was punished by the Jade Emperor to cut down the osmanthus tree in the Moon Palace.When was the osmanthus tree cut off? , when will his sentence end.But the osmanthus tree was very huge.Wu Gang chopped down the tree, and the osmanthus tree healed.In this way, he chopped down the osmanthus tree for hundreds of years.So every August 15th, there is a folk legend that when we look at the moon, we can see the shadow of Wu Gang cutting down trees.The poet Li Bai also once wrote, "If you want to chop the laurel in the moon, you will be paid for the cold."
