Why do people still like moon culture in today's advanced technology?


When is the bright moon? Ask the sky with wine. I don't know what year it is in the palace. I want to take advantage of the wind and go back. I'm afraid that it's too cold in the high places. I'll dance to clear the shadow. It's like I'm in the world. I'll turn to Zhuge to reach Qihu. I don't want to hate you. What's wrong with other times
Because the moon represents the missing of relatives and homesick complex. It also represents the longing for Chang'e's life in the Moon Palace and sympathy for her life

Colorful moon culture


Chang'e to the moon
According to legend, once in ancient times, ten suns appeared in the sky, which made the earth smoke and the sea dry
This event startled a hero named Hou Yi. He climbed to the top of Kunlun Mountain, used his magic power, pulled his bow and shot down nine extra SUNS
Hou Yi set up an extraordinary skill, which was respected and loved by the people. Many people with lofty ideals came to study art. Peng Meng, a crafty and devious man, also got involved
After a while, Hou Yi married a beautiful and kind-hearted wife, Chang'e. in addition to performing arts and hunting, Hou Yi stayed with his wife all day long, and people envied this talented and beautiful couple
One day, Hou Yi went to Kunlun mountain to visit his friends and ask for Tao. He ran into the queen mother who passed by. He asked for a bag of immortal medicine from the queen mother. It is said that if he took this medicine, he could immediately ascend to heaven and become an immortal
However, Hou Yi was reluctant to leave his wife, so he gave the medicine to Chang'e for the time being. Chang'e put the medicine in the treasure box of the dresser, only to be seen by Peng Meng
Three days later, Hou Yi led his disciples out to hunt, and pengmeng pretended to be ill and stayed
Not long after Hou Yi led the others to leave, Peng Meng entered the backyard of the inner house with a sword and threatened Chang'e to hand over the elixir
Chang'e knew that she was not pengmeng's opponent. When she was in danger, she turned to open the treasure box, took out the elixir and swallowed it
After swallowing the medicine, Chang'e immediately floated off the ground, rushed out of the window and flew to the sky. Because Chang'e was concerned about her husband, she flew to the nearest moon and became an immortal
In the evening, when Hou Yi came home, the maids cried about what happened during the day. Hou Yi was frightened and angry. He drew his sword to kill the villain, and pengmeng fled early. He was so angry that Hou Yi thumped his chest and yelled. In grief, Hou Yi looked up at the night sky and called his wife's name. At this time, he was surprised to find that today's moon is bright and bright, and there is a shaking figure that looks like Chang'e
Hou Yi quickly sent people to Chang'e's favorite back garden, put a incense table, put her favorite honey and fresh fruit, and sacrificed to Chang'e in the Moon Palace
After hearing the news that Chang'e became an immortal on the moon, people set up incense tables under the moon one after another to pray for good luck and peace to the kind-hearted Chang'e. since then, the custom of worshiping the moon on the Mid Autumn Festival has spread among the people
The story of Chang'e flying to the moon praises and praises e'e with a bright attitude and brilliant colors. Compared with the records of Chang'e in ancient literature, it can be seen that people have done a lot of processing and decoration to make the image of e'e and the moon the same beauty and make it in line with people's pursuit of beauty, Lingxian, a collection of quanshangguwen, records the story of Chang'e turning into a toad: "Chang'e, Yi's wife, took the immortal medicine from the queen mother and ran to the moon. When she was about to go, Huang zhanzhi said," good luck, go back to my sister, only go westward, never be surprised or afraid when the sky is dark, and then go to Dachang. "Chang'e then entrusted herself to the moon to be a toad." after Chang'e became a toad, she was punished for ramming the immortal medicine all day in the Moon Palace, Living a lonely and miserable life, Li Shangyin once wrote a poem about Chang'e: "Chang'e should regret stealing the elixir, blue sea, blue sky and heart at night."
Houyi shoots at the sun
According to the legend, Hou Yi and Chang'e were both from Yao's time. In Yao's time, ten suns appeared in the sky at the same time, scorched the land and dried up the crops. People were too hot to breathe and fell unconscious on the ground. Because of the extremely hot weather, some strange birds and beasts also ran out of the dry rivers and lakes and the flaming forest, harming people everywhere
The disaster in the world shocked the gods in the sky. Emperor Chang Jun ordered Hou Yi, who was good at archery, to come down to the world to help Yao eliminate the suffering of the people. Hou Yi came to the world with a red bow, a bag of white arrows and his beautiful wife Chang'e
Hou Yi immediately started the battle of shooting at the sun. He took off the red bow from his shoulder, took out the white arrow and shot at the arrogant sun one by one. In an instant, nine out of ten suns were shot. Only because Yao thought that one sun was useful to the people did he stop Hou Yi from shooting. This is the famous story of Hou Yi shooting at the sun
However, Hou Yi's great achievements were envied by other gods. They went to the emperor of heaven to slander him, so that the emperor of heaven finally alienated Hou Yi and finally denounced him to the world forever. The wronged Hou Yi and his wife Chang'e had to live in seclusion and rely on Hou Yi to hunt for a living
According to Huainanzi, Hou Yi felt sorry for his exiled wife, so he went to the queen mother of the west to ask for the elixir of immortality, so that they could live harmoniously in the world forever, He stole all the elixir of immortality and fled to the moon. Another way of saying is that Qu Yuan (about 340 BC? 78) recorded in Tian Wen that Hou Yi was unfaithful to Chang'e later and had an ambiguous relationship with he Bo's wife, which caused Chang'e's great dissatisfaction and left Hou Yi for the sky. After Chang'e went to the moon, she soon regretted it, She thought of her husband's benefits and the warmth of the world, and felt desolate compared with the loneliness in the moon
As for the death of Houyi, Mencius written by Mencius (about 372bc) and Huainanzi compiled by Liu An (1792bc) in the early Western Han Dynasty both say that he was murdered by his disciples who avenged him with kindness, Some said that he was shot with a hidden arrow. In a word, the great hero died in the hands of conspirators
Some legends also say that after the death of Hou Yi, the soul of the hero did not disperse and he became the God of Zhong Kui. This view was verified by Gu Jiegang (1893-1980), a famous historian in China, according to the records of Huainanzi and other ancient books. This view actually reflects the infinite memory of the ancient Chinese people for this unfortunate hero
V Zhu Yuanzhang uprising V
The traditional food for the Mid Autumn Festival is moon cakes. The moon cakes are round, which symbolize reunion and reflect people's good wishes for family reunion. It is said that eating moon cakes for the mid autumn festival began in the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang led the Han people to fight against the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty and agreed to revolt on August 15, The custom of eating moon cakes on Mid Autumn Festival spread among the people
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang finally overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and became the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Although the Manchu and Qing people later came to China, people still celebrate this festival, which symbolizes the overthrow of alien rule
Wu Gang conquers GUI
It is said that there is a laurel tree with a height of 500 Zhang in the moon. In the Han Dynasty, a man named Wu Gang was demoted to the moon to chop the laurel because he was obsessed with immortality and didn't pay attention to his study. However, the laurel in the moon could not be cut down completely, so later generations could see the image of Wu Gang cutting the laurel endlessly in the middle of the month
The Moon Palace is also known as Guanghan palace. It is a cool world, a holy pure land. There are no jackals, tigers, leopards, bandits and robbers. There are only Chang'e Yutu and Wu Gang cutting GUI. There is no sense of noise and fame. It is quiet, quiet and pure. As long as you enjoy the moon, you will feel relaxed and happy, Isn't this the fairyland that Chinese people yearn for? The "Moon Palace" created by Chinese people is a spiritual world. In the process of appreciating the moon, the mind can be sober, the soul can be quiet, calm and calm. Isn't this a precious spiritual cultivation? Westerners also need soul placement. Christians try to approach the wisdom of God through the height of the church spire, While the Chinese people directly build the moon into a "Palace" of faith (called "Moon Palace" and "Moon Palace"), and all prayers and blessings go directly to the moon! The soul of the Chinese people can go beyond time and space, not fast, not fast, directly to the LingXiao palace! It's puzzling that why do Westerners have to make their souls climb the weird spire?
Tides are very punctual. They are almost as accurate as clocks. The moon's circle around the earth is 24 hours and 48 minutes, and the cycle of tides is 24 hours and 48 minutes. During a day and a night, most of the sea water looks like the moon once and faces away from the moon once, so the sea water naturally fluctuates twice
