Michaelmas is a special day on September 29th celebrated mostly in the UK and some other places. It's like a feast day named after St. Michael, who is an angel known for being a protector. In the past, people would have a big meal with a goose, and it marked the beginning of autumn and the end of the harvest season. It was also a time for farmers to pay rent or hire new workers. Nowadays, some people still remember Michaelmas by having a nice meal or doing activities to celebrate the change of seasons.
