According to Zhou Li, there have been activities in the Zhou Dynasty, such as "Mid-Autumn Night to Meet the Cold" and "Autumn Equinox Late Moon (Yue Bai)". The mid-August of the lunar calendar is also the time for the harvest of autumn grain. People hold a series of ceremonies and celebrations to thank the gods for their protection. This is the so-called "Autumn Newspaper".
