中秋のお祭りの裏話Leisure-picture-4


中国の暦では、7月15日は中秋のお祭りの日にあたります。このお祭りの裏にはたくさん興味深い話しがあります。

この有名な神話は、不死の薬をもらったHouyi(ホウイ)という名の、弓の名手を取り巻く物語です。 物語の一説では、彼の美しい妻がその薬を飲んでしまい、翡翠うさぎとともに、星を抜けて月に 舞い上がり、月の女神として知られることになりました。 毎年その日、満月を迎えると彼は妻を想い、 好物だった食べ物を用意して月を見上げるのでした。 のちになって、中秋の月明かりのもと、 家族の集まりで食事を準備したり、離ればなれになった恋人を想ったりすることが人々の風習と なりました。
