The Rabbit in the Moon
Did you know that Japan has a fall tradition of gazing at the full harvest moon? With a history spanning thousands of years this tradition, called Tsukimi, was a way to express gratitude to the gods for the harvest and to pray for future successful harvests.
Decorations and Japanese desserts in the shape of "usagi" (rabbits) are also enjoyed during Tsukimi as it's said that a rabbit lives on the moon. According to Japanese folklore, the god of the moon came down to earth transformed as a beggar, and encountered a rabbit who generously offered to jump into a fire and sacrifice itself to provide food for the "beggar". Touched by this kindness, the god took the rabbit back with him to the moon where it lives today, pounding rice to make mochi!
