A Story of Love, Legacy, and the Baby's Fullmoon 满月礼
Long ago in ancient China, when medicine was not as advanced and infant survival was uncertain, a baby's first 30 days of life were seen as the most fragile and precious. So when a child reached one month old, the entire family would rejoice—it meant the baby had made it through the most delicate stage of life.
To thank the gods, express gratitude to family and friends, and bless the child’s future, the tradition of the 满月礼 (Fullmoon celebration) was born.
On this day, families would hold a small feast or prayer ceremony, and lovingly prepare gifts—filled with red eggs for good fortune, cakes and pastries for sweetness, and other delicacies that symbolized a life of abundance and health. These gifts were sent out to relatives, friends, and those who had shown care and support to the family.
But the Fullmoon wasn’t just about tradition—it was about connection. It was the family’s way of saying:
"This is our child. Thank you for being part of our journey."
Today, centuries later, this beautiful legacy lives on.
Even in our modern, fast-paced world, Chinese families continue to celebrate the baby's Fullmoon because it’s more than just a custom—it's a symbol of love, survival, and new beginnings. It's a heartfelt moment that brings generations together, and a gentle reminder of how every new life deserves to be welcomed with joy and gratitude.
