What does it mean that the moon is affectionate and the stars are serious?

This is a blessing message sent by lovers in Mid-Autumn Festival. Bright moonlight is like our love.

There is no evidence to prove when the Mid-Autumn Festival began. The earliest record of Mid-Autumn Festival can be found in Zhou Ji, one of the thirteen Confucian classics, and The Book of Rites and the Moon Order: Mid-Autumn Moon provides for the aged and eats porridge. This is the earliest written record about the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it is not clear that the Yue Bai event was held on that day.

Extended data:

In the Tang Dynasty, kings would reward their ministers on this day. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Mid-Autumn Festival became a major festival in China. Some experts believe that the Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the activities of farmers to celebrate the autumn harvest and thank the gods for their blessing, so it is related to the harvest.

There is also a saying that the legend of the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon is the origin of Mid-Autumn Festival, but opinions vary. Personally, I prefer to say that the Mid-Autumn Festival is a harvest festival, because ancient agriculture is very important, so it is more reliable to celebrate the harvest.
