This study explored moon mythology legends based on the theory of mythological thinking and sameness theory. The primary objects consisted of Wu Gang, a laurel, the Moon Rabbit, a toad, the Tengou, and the Moon Palace. The earliest documentation of Wu Gung could be traced as far back as YeouYang Za Zu by Duan Cheng-shi. However, it included only a few words without any details. The original version that there was a laurel on the moon was found in Ann Tian Lun by Yu Xi. The Moon Rabbit was recorded first in Tian Wen, Chu Ci, with only seventeen words. The legend about the toad on the moon was reported in Huai Nan Zi. In Ling Xian by Chang Heng, the transformation of Chang Er into a toad was recorded. The Tengou ate the moon or the toad ate the moon was related to lunar eclipse. As for the Moon Palace, it should have appeared in the Six Dynasties and was a fictitious building. On the basis of sameness theory, the author investigated the laurel (chapter 3), the Moon Rabbit (chapter 4), the toad (chapter 5), the Tengou (chapter 6), and found that the common features shared by the plants, the animals and the Moon gave rise to some relationships among them. By means of the theory of mythological thinking, the author explored Wu Gang (chapter 2) and the Moon Palace (chapter 7) and discovered that the myth that Wu Gang was on the Moon and the Moon Palace was on the Moon was pertinent to mythological thinking and inexplicable with normal logic. The author of the study had collected a wide range of materials, analyzed them, and presented his personal points of view. The contribution to the research was the creation of the theory of mythological thinking and sameness theory, which were induced by the author while studying relevant literature. It is hoped that the application of the two theories to moon mythology legends can make substantial contributions to the relevant research.
