This caused tremendous suffering as the land was parched, crops failed and people were dying of thirst and hunger. The then Chinese Emperor ordered a famous archer to shoot down the nine extra suns being careful to leave the last sun behind. The archer easily completed the task with his bow and arrow and the Goddess of Western Heaven rewarded the archer with a pill that would make him immortal. However, his wife found the pill, took it, and was banished to the moon as a result. Legend says that her beauty is greatest on the day of the Moon festival and it is not uncommon for people to claim that they see her image during the full moon period of the month of the Mid-Autumn Festival. From then on, people would light lanterns on Mid-Autumn festival to remember the time when the earth was shone upon by 10 suns. So, on Mid-Autumn Festival, look carefully and see if you can make out the silhouette of a Chinese lady dancing in the moon! So to all my beloved relatives,friends,readers etc,, Happy Mooncake Festival "Zhong Chiu Jie" !!!..enjoy celebrating with your relatives and friend..;)..
