The origin of the Mid-Autumn festival
Mid-Autumn Festival is the confluence of many customs and events, such as Mid-Autumn Festival, Autumn Festival, Moon Appreciation and Moon Palace Legend. It originated in the pre-Qin Dynasty and finally settled in the Tang Dynasty.
The evening moon is the autumnal equinox when the ancient emperors offered sacrifices to the moon. "Li Zhouguan Chunzong Bo Dian Rui" Zheng Xuan Note: The son of heaven is always divided into Asahi and Qiuyue. Pei Zhi's Biographies of Historical Records of Xiao Wu quoted Ying Shao as saying: Tianzi Spring, Sunny Day, Autumn Moon, worshipping the day outside the East Gate. Asahi is facing the DPRK, and the moon is facing the evening. Now the Moon Altar in Beijing, formerly known as the Moon Altar, is the place where the Ming and Qing emperors sacrificed the moon at the autumnal equinox.
Because there is not necessarily a moon on the night of the autumnal equinox, and the moon is not necessarily round, it will spoil the scenery, so people gradually put the autumnal equinox festival on the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival in August is the harvest season. The ancients held ceremonies to worship the land gods, which were called "Autumn Newspaper" and "Autumn Society". Bai Hutong She Jizhai: Mid-Autumn Moon, Choose Yuan Day, Order People's Society.
