October in Japan is a time of harvest and abundance, where traditions and nature's gifts come together in harmony. The ancient festival of Tsukimi, or moon viewing, brings families outside to admire the full moon, believed to symbolize a successful harvest. Under the glowing night sky, offerings like sweet potatoes and rice dumplings (Tsukimi Dango) celebrate the season’s bounty, fostering a sense of gratitude for the earth’s gifts.
