《重阳节》（Double Ninth Festival），又称重九节、晒秋节、“踏秋”，中国传统节日。重阳节，为每年的农历九月初九日，是中国传统节日。“重阳”也叫“重九”，因为《易经》中把“九”定为阳数，九月九日，两九相重，故曰“重阳”；九在数字中又是最大数，所以赋予有生命长久、健康长寿的寓意；古人认为重阳是一个值得庆贺的吉祥日子。古代民间在重阳节有登高祈福的习俗，庆祝重阳节一般包括登高、晒秋、赏菊等活动； 于重阳之日享宴高会（举行敬老宴），感恩敬老。庆祝重阳节一般会包括出游赏秋、登高远眺、观赏菊花、遍插茱萸、吃重阳糕、饮菊花酒等活动。每年的农历九月初九日，与除夕、清明节、中元节三节统称中国传统四大祭祖的节日。

采桑子·重阳

毛泽东 1929年10月

许渊冲 译

Nature does not grow old as fast as man；

Each year the Double Ninth comes round.

And now the Double Ninth comes round.

How sweet are yellow flowers on the battleground.

See autumn reign with heavy winds once every year,

Unlike springtime.

Far more sublime,

The boundless sky and waters blend with endless rime.

人生易老天难老，岁岁重阳。今又重阳，战地黄花分外香。

一年一度秋风劲，不似春光。胜似春光，寥廓江天万里霜。
