中秋节是中国人的传统节日之一，每年农历8月15日庆祝。传说月亮在这一天最大最圆。根据推算，今年公历9月8日为中秋节。

The August Moon Festival is often called the Women's Festival. The moon (Chinese character on right) symbolizes elegance and beauty. While Westerners worship the sun (yang or male) for its power, people in the Far East admire the moon. The moon is the 'yin' or female principle and it is a trusted friend. Chinese parents often name their daughters after the moon, in hope that they will be as lovely as the moon.

People believed that the lady was a god who lived in the moon that made the moon shine. Girls who wanted to be a beauty and have a handsome husband should worship the moon. And on this magical occasion, children who make wishes to the Lady on the Moon will find their dreams come true.

人们认为嫦娥是住在月亮上的仙子，所以月亮才会发光。女孩子如果想要变得漂亮并且有一位如意郎君都要供奉月亮。而中秋之时，孩子们都会向月亮仙子许愿祈求他们能够梦想成真。

中秋节习俗

中秋拜月：

云南傣族在中秋之夜，盛行“拜月”风俗。傣族传说，月亮是天皇第三个儿子岩尖变的。岩尖是个英勇刚强的青年，他曾率领傣族人民打败过敌人，赢得了傣族乡亲的爱戴。后来，他不幸死后，变成了月亮，升向天空，继续发出柔和的月光，在黑暗中给傣族人民带来光明。

北京的“月坛”就是明嘉靖年间为皇家祭月修造的。每当中秋月亮升起，于露天设案，将月饼、石榴、枣子等瓜果供于桌案上，拜月后，全家人围桌而坐，边吃边谈，共赏明月。如今，祭月拜月活动已被规模盛大、多彩多姿的群众赏月游乐活动所替代。

中秋博饼：

起源于泉州，是闽南地区几百年来独有的中秋传统活动，是一种独特的月饼文化，也是对历史的一种传承。近些年传至厦门、漳州、金门等闽南地区。博饼据传是民族英雄郑成功所创。当年，郑成功为了鼓舞思乡将士们，命令其下属发明此游戏。经过几百年的变迁，成为一种独特的中秋文化。随着两岸交流的日益频繁，博饼文化逐渐推广到台湾地区，成了台湾老百姓喜爱的一种中秋文化活动。
