Have you noticed the round and bright moon? That’s because it is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
For Chinese people, a full moon means that family members can get together on that day. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, people get together and enjoy the round moon. They also send wishes to family members that are far away.
There are many stories about the moon to make the tradition more interesting. In China, Chang’e flying to the moon is a well-known legend( 传说). Hou Yi and Chang’e were husband and wife in old times. At the time, there were 10 suns in the sky. Hou yi, a brave man, shot down nine suns. People see Hou Yi as a hero.
Besides China, many other countries have beautiful stories about the moon. In Greek legend, Ar-temis is the guardian of the moon. She takes care of the wild animals. Artemis also looks after young children and women in childbirth( 分娩).
In India, there are many legends about Soma. He has four hands and rides through the sky in a chariot( 战车). If a baby is born on a full moon day, Indian people believe he or she is lucky.
