Historical Development 历史演变

Double Ninth Festival has a history of more than two thousand years. The origin of Double Ninth Festival can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period. In Warring States Period, Double Ninth Festival has been emphasized, but the activity is carried out in royal palace.

重阳节有两千多年的历史了,其起源可以追溯到春秋时期。在战国时期,重阳节很受重视,但这一活动是在皇宫中进行的。

In Han Dynasty, the custom of Double Ninth Festival was increasingly popular. According to legend, the Han emperor Liu’s concubine Ms. Qi was murdered by Queen Lu. One of Ms. Qi’s housemaid named Ms. Jia was expelled and married a common people outside the royal palace. Ms. Jia brought the custom of Double Ninth Festival to the folks. Ms. Jia told people that on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month each year, people should wear cornel, drink chrysanthemum wine and eat double ninth cake so as to live longer. Since then, the folk customs of Double Ninth Festival was widely spread.

在汉代,重阳节的习俗越来越流行。相传汉高祖刘邦的妃子戚夫人遭到吕后的谋害,戚夫人的一位侍女贾氏被逐出宫,嫁与贫民为妻。贾氏便把重阳的活动带到了民间。贾氏对人说:在皇宫中,每年九月初九,都要佩茱萸、饮菊花酒、吃重阳糕,以求长寿,从此重阳的风俗便在民间传开了。

The name of Double Ninth Festival was first seen in the records of the Warring Periods. In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, there appeared written records of the custom of admiring the beauty of chrysanthemum and drink chrysanthemum wine.

关于重阳节的记载最早出现在战国时期的记录中。至魏晋时,出现了赏菊、饮菊花酒习俗的文字记载。

In Tang Dynasty, Double Ninth Festival was officially set up as a national festival. Since then, the court and the civil both celebrate Double Ninth Festival, and hold a variety of activities during the festival.

在唐代,重阳节被正式定为全国性的节日,从那时起,朝廷和民间都庆祝重阳节,并在节日期间举行各种活动。

In Song Dynasty, the festival had developed more popular among the people. In Ming Dynasty, imperial concubines and servants would eat double ninth cake since the first day of the ninth lunar month. On the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, the emperor would climb Wan Sui Mountain so as to express his autumn ambitions. In Qing Dynasty, the custom of Double Ninth Festival prevailed as before.

到了宋代,这个节日发展得更受人们的欢迎。明代皇宫中嫔妃和宫女太监从初一时就开始一起吃花糕庆祝,九日重阳,皇帝还要亲自到万岁山登高览胜,以畅秋志。清代,这些风俗依旧盛行。

Since the 1980s, some places of China set up the ninth day of the ninth lunar month as the Elder’s Festival. They also advocate the whole society to establish respect and care for the elderly. In 1989, the Chinese government set up the ninth day of the ninth lunar month as the “Festival for the Elderly”, “Senior Citizen’s Day.” On December 28, 2012, China’s National People’s Congress voted by the newly revised “elderly Protection Act.” As the Law clearly shows, the ninth day of ninth lunar month as the Elder’s Festival.

从20世纪80年代开始,中国的一些地方就把农历九月初九定为老人节,他们还提倡全社会树立尊重关爱老人的观念。1989年,我国政府将农历九月初九定为“敬老节”。2012年12月28日,中国全国人大投票通过了新修订的《中华人民共和国老年人权益保障法》,规定每年农历九月初九为“老年节”。

独在异乡为异客,

每逢佳节倍思亲。

遥知兄弟登高处,

遍插茱萸少一人。

Thinking of My Brothers on Mountain Climbing Day

Alone, a lonely stranger in a foreign land,

I doubly pine for kinsfolk on a holiday.

I know my brothers would, with dogwood spray in hand,

Climb up mountain and miss me so far away.
