In this tale, Chang'e ascends to the moon with a white rabbit, often referred to as the Jade Rabbit. As a result, the rabbit is also considered one of the symbols of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In the Mid-Autumn Festival, the rabbit symbolizes good fortune and is linked to the legend of Chang'e, who took the Jade Rabbit with her to the moon.
