  关居北础则夫严速造围于元宵节的来历有很多传说。

  有一个传说督方游营简采危原日老是这样的,在古代,有一位看劳神界天鹅闯入人间被猎手误杀。天界最高的神玉皇大帝因此发誓为这只天鹅报仇。他开始制定计划,派出一支天兵天将于农历正月十五来到人间,命令他们火烧所有的人和动物。但是其他神仙并不赞同这一计划,他们冒着生命危险提醒人间的人们。结果,在正月十五这一天前后,每一个家庭在门外挂起灯笼,并燃放烟花爆竹,给天兵天将造故成各家各户起火的假象。通过这种方式,人们成功骗过了玉皇大帝,人类也因此逃过灭绝温的危险。

  另外一个传说发生在汉武帝时期。一位名叫元宵的宫女因身处深宫,没法在正月十五与父母团聚尽孝。为此,她欲跳井自尽。为了帮助元宵姑娘为父母尽孝,智者东方朔想出了一个计划。他告诉汉武帝,天界最高的神——玉皇大帝下令在正月十六火烧长安都。为了拯救长安城,汉武帝问东方朔该怎么办。东方朔回答说火神最爱大红灯笼。他建议在街道上悬挂大红灯笼,皇帝、皇后、六宫嫔妃和朝廷大臣都要外出观赏灯笼。这样,火神的注意力就会被分散,灾难也就可以避免了。皇帝采纳了东方朔的建议,当所有人都外出赏灯时,元宵得以有机会溜出皇宫,和家人团圆。

  虽然上述的传说很神奇,但可以确定的是元宵节的起源必定跟古代人们使用火来庆祝节日、躲避灾难有关。元宵节活动包括逃避邪神,且是在晚上庆祝,所以很自然地,火就扮演了很重要的角色。随着时间的流逝,元宵节逐渐演变为今天的形式。东汉时期,佛教传入中国,皇帝下令,在正月第一个满月的晚上,必须点亮灯笼敬佛,这也使元宵节更增添了一份意义。而在道教里,元宵节是与掌管天界和火的元神紧密相连的,因为他们就诞生在正月十五。

  Eatingyuanxiao(sweetdumplingsmadewithglutinousriceflour)isoneofthespecialtraditionsofLanternFestival.LanternFestivalisalsocalledYuanxiaoFestival.Anothernameforyuanxiaoistangyuan,whichliterallymeans"boiledspheres."

  吃元宵(有糯米粉制成的甜馅儿食物)是元宵节一个特别传统,而元宵节也因这种食物得名。元宵的另一种叫法是汤圆,字面意思就是“煮熟的圆球状食品”。
