In traditional culture, the moon, like the sun, these two alternating celestial bodies became the object of worship of the ancestors.

The Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the sacrifice of the ancients to the moon, and is the remnant and derivation of the Chinese nation's custom of worshiping the moon. Worshipping the moon is a very ancient custom in our country, and it is actually a kind of worship activity of the ancients in some parts of our country in ancient times to the "moon god".
