Mabon, or the Fall Equinox, is another harvest festival. It is celebrated on September 21st in the Northern Hemisphere and on March 19th is the Southern Hemisphere. However, depending on how Mabon falls, it can also be on either the 22nd or the 23rd of September in the Northern Hemisphere.

We harvest what is left in our gardens before the freezing cold…

It might just like a random shape, but this, I believe. I’ve had a countless number of good days in my life. However, like everyone else in the world, I also had some not-so-great days.

Empress Dou, during the Han dynasty, was not only a faithful wife but also a wise advisor of Emperor Han Wendi. Favoring Daoism instead of the traditional Confucianism, Empress Dou created a “government of non-action, on order to relax the population and to revive the economy” (“Persons in Chinese…

Confucius’s teachings and philosophies are considered secular and worldly - more focused on how the interactions and relationships of humans could impact a society - rather than a supernatural being or divine force.

This connected to his understanding that supernatural figures did not directly impact the cultivation of virtue and dignity within a man, and his…
