開運風水水晶珠寶描述：：中秋節的由來 中秋節是中國傳統節日之一，被譽為“月夕節”、“團圓節”，每年農歷八月十五日，是家庭團聚的日子。那么，中秋節的由來是什么呢？ 傳說，遠古時代，有十個太陽輪流照耀大地，導致干涸沙漠，百姓無法生存。后來，弓箭手后羿奮勇射下九個太陽，拯救了百姓，獲得了崇高的地位。但隨之而來的是天帝賜予的不死藥，最終被其妻子嫦娥偷走，最后變成了月神。每逢八月十五，嫦娥便帶著月亮降臨凡間，聚集家人團圓。 另有一種說法，起源于周朝，盛行于唐朝，也是家族祭祀祖宗的一種形式。人們在仲秋之時，為了表示感恩、紀念先祖和祈求豐收平安而舉行一種隆重的祭祀活動。這是一種對節日和家族情感的深深留戀，成為中秋節的重要緣由之一。 中秋節的由來是中國文化的重要組成部分，傳承千年。每到這個節日，人們紛紛遠游歸家，享受家庭團聚的美好時光，品嘗傳統的月餅、柚子和其他美食，一起賞月、誦詩，快樂度過這個美好的夜晚。 總之，中秋節的由來源遠流長，代代相傳，成為我們文化的重要組成部分。我們應該重視并珍惜這個節日，讓傳統文化得以傳承。 Title: The Story Behind The Mid-Autumn Festival Introduction: The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important festivals in China. It is celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month every year, which usually falls in September or October. It is a time for family reunions, moon watching, and feasting on mooncakes. But what is the story behind this ancient festival? In this article, we will explore the history, legends, and traditions of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Part 1: The History of Mid-Autumn Festival The Mid-Autumn Festival has a long history that dates back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE). It was originally a harvest festival, where farmers celebrated the end of the harvest season and thanked the gods for a bountiful harvest. During the Ming (1368-1644 CE) and Qing (1644-1912 CE) dynasties, the festival became more popular, and it was during this time that the tradition of moon watching and eating mooncakes began. Part 2: The Legend of Chang'e and Houyi The Mid-Autumn Festival is also known as the Moon Festival because it is said that the moon is the brightest and roundest on this day. There are many legends associated with the festival, but the most famous one is the story of Chang'e and Houyi. According to legend, Houyi was a skilled archer who shot down nine suns, leaving only one in the sky. He was rewarded with a pill of immortality, which he gave to his wife Chang'e to keep it safe. However, Chang'e accidentally swallowed the pill and flew to the moon, where she has lived ever since. It is said that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chang'e comes down to Earth to reunite with her husband. Part 3: Traditions of Mid-Autumn Festival Mooncakes are the centerpiece of the Mid-Autumn Festival. These small, round cakes are filled with sweet lotus seed paste or bean paste and often contain a salted egg yolk in the center, symbolizing the full moon. They are given as gifts to friends and family, and eaten while admiring the moon. Another tradition of the festival is lantern making and dragon and lion dancing. People will light up colourful lanterns and parade through the streets with dragon and lion dances, creating a festive and lively atmosphere. Conclusion:
