Welcome to Shuimoxiansheng.com to get the exciting fortune content for the eighth month of the lunar calendar in 2021, and we will give you detailed answers!What is the relationship between Mid-Autumn Festival and Chang'e's flight to the moon?In fact, the Mid-Autumn Festival itself has nothing to do with Chang'e's flight to the moon. It is just that with the development of the times, people's yearning for love stories and their belief and worship of ghosts and gods have increased. This gave rise to numerous mythological stories and legends about ghosts and gods. Chang'e flying to the moon is one of the many mythological stories.According to legend, in ancient times, ten suns suddenly appeared in the sky, scorching the earth so hard that it was smoking, and the people could no longer survive. There was a hero with great strength named Houyi, who was determined to relieve the people of this suffering. Houyi climbed to the top of Mount Kunlun, gathered all his strength, pulled the bow to its full extent, and shot down nine suns in one breath, "whoosh-whoosh-whoosh". He said to the last sun in the sky: "From now on, you must rise and set on time every day to benefit the people." Houyi eliminated the harm to the people and everyone respected him. Many people worshipped him as their teacher and learned martial arts from him. There was a man named Pang Meng, who was treacherous and greedy. He also followed the crowd to become Houyi's disciple. Houyi's wife Chang'e was a beautiful and kind woman. She often helps poor villagers, and they all like her very much. One day, the Queen Mother of the West on Mount Kunlun gave Houyi a pill of elixir. It is said that if people take this medicine, they can not only achieve immortality, but also ascend to heaven and become immortals. However, Houyi was unwilling to leave Chang'e, so he asked her to hide the elixir in the treasure box. Somehow this matter was known to Pang Meng, who was determined to get Houyi's elixir. On the morning of August 15th, Houyi was about to take his disciples out, but Pang Meng pretended to be sick and stayed behind. At night, Pang Meng rushed into Houyi's house with a sword in hand and forced Chang'e to hand over the elixir. Chang'e thought to herself, if such a person were to take the elixir of immortality, wouldn't it harm more people? So she dealt with Pang Meng cleverly. When Pang Meng saw that Chang'e refused to hand over the elixir, he searched everywhere for it. Seeing that she was about to find the treasure box, Chang'e hurried forward, took out the elixir, and swallowed it in one gulp. After Chang'e took the elixir, she suddenly began to float up into the air. She flew out of the window, across the silver-lit countryside, higher and higher. There was a bright moon hanging in the deep blue night sky, and Chang'e was flying towards the moon. When Houyi came back from an outside trip, his wife Chang'e was missing. He rushed out of the door anxiously, only to see a bright moon in the sky, swaying shadows of trees on the round moon, and a jade rabbit jumping around under the tree. Ah, my wife is standing beside a laurel tree, gazing at me affectionately. "Chang'e, Chang'e" Houyi called out repeatedly and chased after the moon desperately. But for every three steps he took forward, the moon took three steps back, and he could never catch up with it. The villagers missed the kind-hearted Chang'e very much. They placed the food that Chang'e liked to eat in the yard and wished her well from afar. From then on, August 15th of each year became the Mid-Autumn Festival, a festival that people looked forward to family reunion. Introduction to the legend of the origin of Mid-Autumn Festival1. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, crops and various fruits gradually mature. In order to celebrate the harvest and express their joy, farmers regard the Mid-Autumn Festival as a festival. "Mid-Autumn" means the middle of autumn. The eighth month of the lunar calendar is the middle month of autumn, and the fifteenth day is the middle day of this month, so the Mid-Autumn Festival may be a custom inherited from the ancients' "Autumn Report".2. Historians have pointed out that the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival should be that on August 15th of the 13th year of Daye in the late Sui Dynasty, Pei Ji of the Tang army took the full moon as an idea and successfully invented moon cakes. He distributed them widely in the army as military pay, successfully solving the problem of military food derived from the large-scale absorption of anti-Sui rebels. 3. The word Mid-Autumn was first seen in "Zhou Li". "Book of Rites·Monthly Orders" said: "In the middle of autumn, the elderly are nourished and the Mid-Autumn Festival porridge is eaten. |
