Product Description The Chinese Moon Festival is on the 15th of the 8th lunar month. It's also known as the Mid-autumn Festival. The exact date in the Western calendar changes yearly. In 2005 it falls on September 18. Just like Christmas and Thanksgiving in the West, the Moon Festival is one of the most important traditional events for the Chinese. On that day the Chinese community in different countries celebrate by peaceful gatherings with their loved ones. The Moon Festival is also an occasion for family reunions. When the full moon rises, families get together to watch the full moon, eat moon cakes, and sing moon poems. The full moon is a symbol of promise for abundance, of harmony and luck. The Moon Festival is also full of legendary stories. Legend says that Chang Er flew to the moon, where she has lived ever since. You might see her dancing on the moon during the Moon Festival
