• The Tale of the Moon Goddess and the Woodcutter Jul 10, 2025

  

  In the mountains of northern Vietnam, where ancient forests whisper secrets to the wind and streams cascade down rocky slopes like silver ribbons, there lived a young woodcutter named Cuoi. He was known throughout the mountain villages for his honest heart, his incredible strength, and his skill with an axe—but most of all for his contentment with the simple life he had chosen.

  Every morning, Cuoi would venture into the deep forest to gather wood, always taking only what was needed and never cutting down healthy trees that still had many years of growth ahead of them. He lived in a small bamboo hut that he had built himself, surrounded by a garden where he grew vegetables to share with elderly neighbors who could no longer work their own land.

  High above the clouds, in the celestial realm where immortal beings dwell in eternal harmony, there lived seven fairy sisters whose beauty was said to rival the stars themselves. The youngest sister, named Zhinü, possessed not only extraordinary beauty but also exceptional skill in weaving silk so fine it seemed to be made of moonbeams and starlight.

  Every day, the seven sisters would descend from heaven to bathe in a crystal-clear lake hidden deep within the mountains of northern Vietnam. This sacred lake, surrounded by ancient pine trees and floating lotus blossoms, was known only to the forest spirits and creatures who lived in perfect harmony with nature.
