The 玉兔 (Jade Rabbit) is a mythical creature in Chinese folklore, often associated with the moon. It is said to live on the moon alongside the goddess 嫦娥 (Chang'e), where it is depicted as a companion who pounds herbs to create elixirs of immortality. The Jade Rabbit symbolizes selflessness and sacrifice. In Chinese culture, the Jade Rabbit is celebrated during the 中秋节 (Mid-Autumn Festival), a holiday that honors the moon and family reunions. The image of the Jade Rabbit is commonly found in art and literature, representing hope and the pursuit of eternal life.
