			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.floweradvisor.com/florist/canada/occasions/mid_autumn_festival/121/">Moon cakes festival</a>&#8217;s theme, celebrating                      the glories and mysteries of the moon, was a natural choice. The festival that is famous with <a href="http://www.floweradvisor.com/florist/canada/occasions/mid_autumn_festival/121/">Chinese mooncake</a> has its own celestial cosmology. Along                      with the sun, the moon has long been an object of human curiosity                      and worship. &#8220;It is probable that sun and moon were early                      held to be deities and that they were the first visible objects                      of worship,&#8221; according to the book &#8220;Sketches of                      the History of Man.&#8221; To the most ancient ancestors of                      the Chinese, the sun and the moon were considered the &#8220;chief                      objects of veneration,&#8221; according to records dating to                      the Han dynasty emperor Wu Di (157-87 B.C.).</p>
<p>In ancient Asian mythology, there is a strong                      relationship between the moon and water. The moon is said                      to regulate reservoirs and supplies of water. There is a suggestion                      that the moon produces fertility and freshness in the soil.                      The moon&#8217;s role in bountiful harvests is widely recognized                      during autumns around the world.</p>
<p>In Chinese celestial cosmology, the moon                      represents the female principle, or yin. During ancient <a href="http://www.floweradvisor.com/florist/canada/occasions/mid_autumn_festival/121/">Mid autumn festivals</a>, women took center stage because the moon is                      considered feminine. Only women took part in Moon Festival                      rituals on the night of the full moon. Altars would be set                      up in households, and when the full moon appeared, women would                      make offerings of incense, candles, fruit, flowers, and mooncakes.</p>
<p>The enduring legend of the Moon Goddess,                      Chang O (Chang-E in other transliterations), reflects the                      feminine principle of yin, as opposed to the masculine principle                      of yang, which is symbolized by the sun.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Traditional Activities During the Mid-Autumn Festival:</strong><br />
Besides the obvious, moon-gazing, Chinese families celebrate by getting together and eating. Boiled peanuts, slices of taro, rice gruel, fish and noodles are all traditional dishes to eat during the festival, but none of these takes the place of the moon cake. Ubiquitously on sale in every supermarket and hotel, moon cakes are now a highly prized commodity. Companies use the festival as a time to thank clients with boxes of moon cakes. You may be wondering just what a moon cake is?</p>
<p><strong>Moon Cakes:</strong><br />
Moon cakes are typically round, symbolizing the full round moon of the <a href="http://www.floweradvisor.com/florist/canada/occasions/mid_autumn_festival/121/">Mid autumn festivals</a>. They are usually made with four egg yolks, representing the four phases of the moon, and are sweet, filled with sweet bean or lotus seed paste. There are savory types as well and these days, you can even get them from Haagen Dazs. Read more about moon cakes and how to make them from Rhonda Parkinson, Guide to Chinese Cuisine.</p>
<p><strong>History of the <a href="http://www.floweradvisor.com/florist/canada/occasions/mid_autumn_festival/121/">Chinese mooncake</a>:</strong><br />
Based on a legend, it was with the help of the moon cake that the Ming Dynasty established. Rebels used the <a href="http://www.floweradvisor.com/florist/canada/occasions/mid_autumn_festival/121/">Mooncakes festival</a> as a method to convey their plans for revolt. They ordered the baking of special cakes to commemorate the festival. But what the Mongol leaders didn&#8217;t know was that secret messages were tucked into the cakes and distributed to allied rebels. On the night of the festival, the rebels successfully attacked, overthrowing the Mongol government and establishing a new era, the Ming Dynasty.</p>

Sialkot District or the District of Sialkot, is one of the districts of the Punjab province of Pakistan. It is located in the north-east of the province. The city of Sialkot is the capital of the district.<br />
History<br />
The legendary history of the District is connected with Raja Salivahan, the reputed founder of the town of Sialkot, and his famous son Rasalu. Pasrur is also an ancient place. At an early date the District fell to the Rajas of Jammu, and under the Mughals formed the Rechna Doab sarkar of the Subah of Lahore. Under Shah Jahan the sarkar was entrusted to Ali Mardan Khan, the famous engineer, who dug a canal through it to bring water from the Chenab river to the imperial gardens in Lahore. On the decline of the Mughal empire Ranjit Singh Deo, a Rajput hill chief, extended his sway over the lowlands, owning a nominal allegiance to Delhi. In 1748 he transferred his allegiance to Ahmad Shah Durrani, who added Zafarwal and two other parganas to his fief. Before his death in 1773 Ranjit Deo had secured possession of the whole District, except the Sialkot town and its dependencies, which were held by a Pathan family.<br />
After his death the Bhangi confederacy of the Sikhs took Sialkot from the Pathans, and eventually overran the whole country up to the foot of the Jammu hills, dividing it among a score of leaders. These petty States were, however, attached by Ranjit Singh in 1791; and his annexation of Pasrur in 1807 gave him control of the tract, after his general, Diwan Mohkam Chand, had defeated the Sardars of Sialkot at Attari.<br />
During the Indian Rebellion of 1857 the station was denuded of British troops; and the Native regiments which were left behind rose, and, after sacking the jail, treasury, and courthouse, and massacring several of the European inhabitants, marched off towards Delhi, only to be destroyed by Nicholson at Trimmu Ghat. The rest of the Europeans took refuge in the fort, and on the morning after the departure of the rebels order was restored. The only events of interest in the subsequent history of the District are the plague riots which occurred at the villages of Shahzada and Sankhatra in 1901.<br />
Numerous mounds are scattered about the District, which mark the sites of ancient villages and towns. None of them, except that on which the Sialkot fort stood, has been excavated, but silver and copper utensils and coins have been dug up from time to time by villagers. Most of the coins are those of Indo-Bactrian kings. The excavations in Sialkot revealed the existence of some old baths, with hot-water pipes of solid masonry. The fort itself, of which very little now remains, is not more than 1,ooo years old, and is said to have been rebuilt by Shahab-ud-din Ghori at the end of the twelfth century.<br />
In 1859, Gurdaspur, Amritsar and Sialkot were placed in the new division of Sialkot. But in 1884, Gurdaspur along with Amritsar again became a part of the Lahore Division.<br />
According to the 1901 census the district had a population of 1,083,909 and contained 7 towns and 2,348 villages. The population at previous three enumerations were: 1,004,695 (1868), 1,012,148 (1881) and 1,119,847 (1891). The population decreased between 1891-1901 by 3.2, the decrease being greatest in the Raya tahsil and least in Daska. The Chenab Colony is responsible for this fall in population, no less than 103,000 persons having left to take land in the newly irrigated tracts.<br />
The district was subdivided into five tehsils namely: Sialkot, Pasrur, Zafarwal, Raya and Daska. The chief towns of the districts were Daska, Jamki, Pasrur, Kila Sobha Singh, Zafarwal and Narowal.<br />
