Her husband Hou Yi got a special medicine that could make people live forever. A bad man tried to steal it, so Chang'e had to eat the medicine and flew to the moon. People missed her so much, and that's the start of the festival. Today, Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. It comes on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month（农历月）. On that day, all family members get together if they can. They enjoy the bright full moon, eat delicious mooncakes, and sometimes smell sweet osmanthus flowers（桂花）. The round moon and round mooncakes both mean "reunion". People also send warm wishes to family members far from home.
