Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Appreciation Source:

The custom of enjoying the moon comes from offering sacrifices to the moon, and serious sacrifices have become light fun. Folk Mid-Autumn Festival moon appreciation activities were about the early Wei and Jin Dynasties, but there was no custom. In the Tang Dynasty, Mid-Autumn Festival and playing with the moon were very popular, and many poets chanted about the moon in their poems. It was not until the Song Dynasty that the Mid-Autumn Festival was formed and officially designated as the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Different from the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty is mostly a sad feeling, often full of rain and sunshine, which is a metaphor for human feelings. Even on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, the bright moon can't hide the sadness of Song people.
