赏菊饮酒
此时的菊花,盛放傲人骄姿,独揽天地秋意,重阳节也是一个赏菊的节日。菊花被认为具有君子之风。人们重阳赏菊,赏的也是一份高洁淡雅的君子风范。
菊花含有养生成分,晋代葛洪《抱朴子》有南阳山中人家饮用遍生菊花的甘谷水而益寿的记载。重阳佳节饮菊花酒,是中国的传统习俗。菊花酒在古代被看作是重阳必饮、祛灾祈福的“吉祥酒”。
In ancient times, people also would admire the beauty of chrysanthemums and drink wine on the day. The ninth lunar month is the time when chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and chrysanthemums symbolize longevity. So every year at the festival, people pick fresh chrysanthemums to make chrysanthemum wine. The ancients regarded it as auspicious wine for clearing away heat, detoxifying and prolonging life.
