What is the meaning of Jade Rabbit taking Chang e home?

The implication is big, this proves the myths and legends of our country, the jade rabbit and the moon can be said to have become a good story of our generation.

In fact, the first creature Chang'e 5 saw when it landed was a rabbit, plus there are myths and legends of Chang'e running to the moon in China, so it feels like this thing is indeed quite magical.

This is because when my country's Chang'e 5 came back from the moon, it saw a small animal before landing, and later found that it was a little rabbit after careful identification, so there was a jade rabbit to take Chang'e home.

Implication is the traditional story of Chang'e running to the moon in China, and the legend says that Chang'e has a pet on the moon, named Jade Rabbit.

Chang'e and Jade Rabbit resting on the moon.

Legend. 1. There is a white jade rabbit in the Moon Palace, and she is the incarnation of Chang'e. Because Chang'e violated the will of the Jade Emperor after running to the moon, Chang'e turned into a jade rabbit, and every time the moon was full, he had to pound medicine for the gods in the moon palace as punishment.

Legend. Second, the legend has three immortals, incarnated as three poor old men, begging for food from foxes, monkeys and rabbits, foxes and monkeys have taken out food to help the elderly, but only rabbits do not, and then the rabbit told the old man You eat me, so he jumped into the flames, the gods were greatly moved, so the rabbit was sent to the Guanghan Palace to become the Jade Rabbit, and later, the Jade Rabbit was accompanied by Chang'e in the Guanghan Palace, and pounded the elixir of life.

Legend. 3. Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a pair of rabbits who had practiced for thousands of years and became immortals. They have four lovely daughters, all of whom are pure and beautiful.

Mid-Autumn Festival

Legend has it that Chang'e flew to the Moon Palace because she stole Yi's immortal elixir and was unable to see her family since. Later, on August 15, people placed a full moon-like dim sum in the courtyard to express Chang'e's thoughts about her family, and every year it became the Mid-Autumn Festival.

According to legend, after Chang'e flew to the Moon Palace, she confided her remorse to Yi and said: "Tomorrow is the time of the full moon, you make a pill from flour, like a full moon, and place it in the northwest direction of the house, and then call my name continuously." At the third watch, I can go home.

The next day, Yi did as his wife instructed, and then Chang'e fruit flew from the middle of the moon, and the husband and wife were reunited. The custom of making moon cakes for Chang'e during the Mid-Autumn Festival was also formed from this. Since then, the custom of worshipping the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival has spread among the people.

The Jade Rabbit is the incarnation of Chang'e, because Chang'e stole the immortal medicine and soared to the ground, after arriving in the heavenly realm, he annoyed the Emperor because of something, and was punished for changing into the Jade Rabbit pounding medicine day and night.

After the Han Dynasty, the moon story has the image of the jade rabbit. However, it does not appear on the moon alone, but as an animal next to Chang'e, it can also be said to be Chang'e's pet.

The position of the jade rabbit in the moon can be summarized as follows: since the Han Dynasty, it began to enter the moon palace in people's legends, at this time it is sometimes said to be a moon spirit, sometimes it also coexists with the toad in the moon palace, and sometimes it is also on the moon with Chang'e.

It is not an ordinary rabbit at the beginning, except that it sometimes occupies the position of the moon spirit, but also because it is the attendant of the Queen Mother of the West before entering the Moon Palace, and the god who is in charge of healing and longevity is specially respected by people, although the jade rabbit that pounds medicine is not the main god, but it also has a bit of the taste of the god of medicine. After arriving at the Moon Palace, it is still a posture of pounding medicine.

"Chang'e Jade Rabbit Comes to Visit" Chang'e and Jade Rabbit are both synonymous with the moon, so this poem refers to visiting when the moon comes out. The allusion between Chang'e and her descendants is used to express the emotions of the beautiful people meeting at the moonlight.

It means that the moon will be rounder and brighter tonight.
