The Mid-Autumn Festival is here
This is a time of year
The most gentle and poetic festival of the year
When I was young, I didn't understand the moon
I called it a jade plate
(Tang Dynasty, Li Bai, "Ancient Ballad of the Moon")
The moon rises from the sea
At the ends of the earth, we share this moment
(Tang Dynasty, Zhang Jiuling, "Gazing at the Moon and Longing for Home")
Tonight, the moon is bright, and everyone looks up
I wonder whose autumn thoughts fall
(Tang Dynasty, Wang Jian, "Gazing at the Moon on the Fifteenth Night and Sending to Du Langzhong")
A good time
May we every year
See the Mid-Autumn Moon
(Ming Dynasty, Xu Youzhen, "Mid-Autumn Moon")
Small cakes, like chewing the moon
With sugar and maltose inside
(Song Dynasty, Su Shi, "Farewell to the Magistrate")
May you always be well
Thousands of miles apart, we share the beauty of the moon
(Song Dynasty, Su Shi, "Ode to the Moon")
Mid-Autumn Festival
For thousands of years
It represents the deep affection of the Chinese people for the moon
Even though we are separated by thousands of miles
But no matter where we are
We can all look up and see the same moon
It is the unending thoughts of wanderers
It is the wish that every year
Will be a time of family reunion under the full moon
It is the intoxicating sweetness of mooncakes
Healing the longing in people's hearts
It is the familiar blessing
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival

End of Heat | Summer not yet felt over, the time has come for new autumn
Chushu is the fourteenth solar term in the "Twenty-Four Solar Terms" and the second solar term of autumn. In the "Monthly Commands · Compilation of Seventy-Two Phenomena," it is said: "Chu means stop; the heat stops here." Chushu is neither as dynamic as Grain Rain or White Dew, nor as distinct as the Beginning of Spring or Beginning of Summer. Just like the traditional character for "Chu" (處), which contains the component "処 (chǔ)", meaning "to walk slowly." To truly appreciate the unique beauty of Chushu, one must slow down and savor it carefully.

On August 7th, the Beginning of Autumn solar term arrives! The gaps between fingers are too wide, time is too thin.

In early autumn, the wind is a gentle breeze, the scenery is bright, the time is frosty, and the trees are sparse. It is suitable for climbing heights, watching the sea, and gazing into the distance. May you feel comfortable and peaceful, and live your days vividly through the changing solar terms.
