Chapter 156: Chatting Month

Midsummer night, the stars are very bright, I look at the moonlight outside the window, so bright, a crescent moon hangs in the sky, I open the window, want to see the night outside the window, you know since when, I actually have the interest in admiring the moon, I am thinking that I live in the middle of the city, it is also a very pleasant thing to enjoy the moon, but I don't want to go to the moon at all because I am interested, it is because I am bored, I am thinking about Chang'e in the Moon Palace, she is very lonely!

I can't help but think of Li Shangyin's poem:

The mica screen candle shadow is deep, and the long river gradually falls.

Chang'e should repent of stealing the elixir, and the blue sea and blue sky are night and night.

In the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Wu Gang, who was obsessed with the way of immortals and did not concentrate on learning, and was relegated to the moon to cut laurel, but the laurel was cut with it, so later generations were able to see the image of Wu Gang cutting laurel endlessly in the middle of the month.

6. The name and nickname of the moon

Jade Rabbit, Luminous, Su'e, Ice Wheel, Jade Wheel, Jade Toad, Guilu, Toad, Gu Rabbit, Chanjuan, Jade Bow, Jade Cinnamon, Jade Plate, Jade Hook, Jade Mirror, Ice Mirror, Guanghan Palace, Chang'e, Jade Sheep, etc.

In a scientific sense, there is no such thing as "a Chinese moon", but as the Huayan Sutra teaches the so-called "moon seal ten thousand rivers", the moon in the sky has only one round, and the reflection in different mountains and rivers reflects different waves and moon shadows, so in Chinese culture, the moon is not an ordinary star at the beginning, it is accompanied by the world of mythology, carrying profound and deep cultural content, so as to have the cultural attributes of the "Chinese moon". In the moonlight world, "the Chinese's extremely light, elegant and extremely sensitive heartstrings are gently plucked by the warm and crystalline moonlight." All the troubles and depressions, all the joys and pleasures, all the sorrows of the world, all the parting of life and death, seem to be often provoked by the moon for no reason, and all kinds of ethereal and quiet states of mind of people can not only be false moon phases, but also can have a sound in the gentle and pleasant moonlit world"[1]. The faint moonlight world not only reflects the aesthetic realm and interest of the Chinese, but also reflects the mental image of the Chinese literati.

"The moonlight in the sky can move the world", in fact, when the moonlight moves the world, the first thing that moves is people's spiritual world. The moon is moving, the heart is moving, and the moon is moving with the heart. Li Yu's "Idle Love and Occasional Mail" discusses the "Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Appreciation" fold and says: "In the same month, those who come from the mouth of the Niu family are happy to speak." Out of the mouth of the uncle, the words are desolate", and the reason is "the month of the speaker, the heart of the person". is the same round of bright moon, in Li Bai's pen, it is "the bright moon out of the mountain, between the vast sea of clouds." The long wind is tens of thousands of miles, blowing the Yumen Pass", the moon symbolizes the ambition and life of the Tang Dynasty; In Du Fu's place, it became "Jiang Yueguang is in the water, and high-rise buildings think of killing." The sky is a long guest, and he gets old and touches a scarf" ("Jiang Yue"), looking so old and tired. Seeing the bright moon, Fan Zhongyan's feeling is that "the bright moon building is resting alone, and the wine is sad and turns into tears", reflecting the sad state of mind of lovesickness and fear of seeing Qinghui; Wang Anshi expressed "the spring breeze and the south bank of the Green River, when will the bright moon shine on me", hoping that the bright moon will be in the sky and return to the hometown by boat, full of joy in the ideal realm. Even the same poet has different understandings of the moon in different periods, Li Bai's "Gulang Moon Travel" said: "When you don't know the moon, you call it a white jade plate." Imitate the Yaotai mirror, fly in the green clouds", compare the moon to the "white jade plate" and "Yaotai mirror" are all figurative and appropriate metaphors, can not be said to be ignorant of the moon, but at this time the poet's understanding of the moon is no longer the naïve of childhood, after experiencing all kinds of hardships in the world, at this time he feels that "the moonlight wants to go to the Changmen Palace, don't be a deep palace for a period of sorrow", this phenomenon is said in Ouyang Xiu's poem: "Life is a lover, this hatred is not about the wind and the moon", here it is very clear that it is the mood of people who move, and has nothing to do with the wind and the moon.

1. The moonlight reflects the psychology of the ancient literati to find a spiritual home and restore the harmony and unity of the world. In classical poetry, the theme of homesickness often shows the moon, the feelings of revisiting old dreams, the moon is the nostalgia that is clear in the sky, and the poet misses his home and parents, and often pins his hopes on the bright moon. For example: Li Bai: "The bright moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground." Raise your head to look at the bright moon and bow your head to think of your hometown. ("Silent Night Thoughts"), Du Fu: "The drums cut off the pedestrians, and the sound of geese in autumn." The dew is white from tonight, and the moon is the hometown of Ming. ("Memories of a Moonlit Night"), Lu Lun: "Sanxiang is sad and sideburns are in autumn, and thousands of miles return to the bright moon." ("Late Ezhou"), Chen Houshan: "You should not understand the hair, it seems to want to persuade people to return." ("Fifteenth Night Moon"), Xu Zhenqing: "The old garden is tonight and the moon, - handed to the people." ("Moon") When the prodigal son of the lonely minister travels to the end of the world, he always associates the bright moon with his hometown, and the bright moon becomes a mysterious resemblance to start nostalgia and return home. This does not indicate that in the deep layers of people's consciousness, the moon is always a symbol of warmth and harmony in the mother's society, so whenever people wander the world and are lonely, the moon becomes the spiritual sustenance of the homeland; The moon ties the soul of lovesickness and shortens the distance between time and space, which triggers the theme of lovesickness between the two places in January in ancient times. Xie Zhuang's "Moon Fu" "Beauty Mai Xi Yin Chenque, Thousands of Miles Away from the Bright Moon", Zhang Jiuling's "Looking at the Moon and Huaiyuan" "The Sea Rises and the Moon Rises, the End of the World is at this Time", Bai Juyi's "The New Moon in the Three or Five Nights, Two Thousand Miles Away from the Heart" ("August 15th Night Forbidden Yu Zhi Zhi Yuan Si Zhen"), Su Shi's "I wish people a long time, thousands of miles together Chanjuan", from the surface structure, these poems are nothing more than the feelings of "I send my sorrow and the bright moon", and the moon in its deep structure is not the embodiment of harmony and warmth?

2. The moon reflects the loneliness and loneliness of the ancient poets, and reflects the psychology of the frustrated seeking solace and relief. Li Shangyin's poem "Untitled" has the verse "Xiaojing but the clouds and temples change, and the night chant should feel the cold moonlight", "the night chant should feel the cold moonlight" is not that the moonlight is really cold and warm, but that the moon constitutes the bitter psychology of the lonely and frustrated. Because the Moon Palace still preserves the bleak and sad memories of women's expulsion, the frustrated person standing in the moonlight always writes the moon as a cold moon, a lonely moon, and a cold moon. Li Bai has poems called "The white rabbit pounds medicine in autumn and spring, Chang'e lives alone with whom", Li Shangyin "The rabbit is cold and the toad is cold and the osmanthus is white, and Chang'e should break her intestines this night", in the moonlight, thinking about the frustrated Chang'e in the Guanghan Palace, naturally coincides with the poet's ups and downs in the sea, the ups and downs of his career, and the frustration of life. "Nineteen Ancient Poems" has: "The bright moon is bright, according to my bed." I can't sleep with sorrow, and I wander around with my clothes. It is precisely because of the image of loneliness and frustration reflected by the moon that it is related to the poet's sad feelings, Ruan Ji is "worried and sad alone" under the moon, Du Fu sighs "Jiangcun is a single old man" in "the autumn moon is still full of night", and even the bold and expansive Su Dongpo also wrote "The lack of the moon hangs the dredging tree, and the initial silence of the person is missing." Who sees a lonely person coming and going, ethereal and lonely", a waning moon, full of loneliness, wandering under the moon, and the feeling of sorrow is unstoppable. The most typical is Bai Juyi's "Mid-Autumn Moon": "Thousands of miles of clear light are incredible, adding sorrow and hatred to the end of the world." Whoever has been fighting outside Longwai for a long time, where is the court before parting. fell out of favor and returned to the hospital on the night, when the veteran went upstairs. According to his few broken intestines, the Jade Rabbit Silver Toad is far from knowing. The moon with its cold and sad moonlight can only be "sad and hateful" for the frustrated, and the sad moon image reflects the heart of the miserable and hesitant.

3. As a symbol of eternity and nature, the moon has become the embodiment of the personality of scholars and doctors who escape from the suffering of reality, excel in the world, and laugh at the mountains and forests. Li Bai's poem "Drinking Alone Under the Moon": "A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date." Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio. The moon does not drink, and the shadow disciples follow me. Temporarily accompanied by the moon will be shadowed, and the joy must be spring. I sing and wander, and I dance in a mess. When you wake up, the moon is happy, and when you are drunk, you scatter. Eternal knot ruthless travel, phase Miao Yunhan. At this moment, the moon is no longer a purely objective thing, but the personification of the poet's own elegant style and chic bearing, and the poet has become the confidant and companion of the moon after getting rid of the shackles of alienation.

Dear friends, some of the above things related to the moon, purely personal preferences, last night I had a dream about the month, so a few days to collect some articles about the month, I hope you can understand、、、、 hehe!
