　　元旦的元，指开始，是第一的意思，凡数之始称为元;旦，象形字，上面的日代表太阳，下面的一代表地平线。旦即太阳从地平线上冉冉升起，象征一日的开始。人们把元和旦两个字结合起来，就引申为新年开始的第一天。元旦又称三元，即岁之元、月之元、时之元。元旦一词最早始于三皇五帝，唐房玄龄等人写的《晋书》上载:颛帝以孟春正月为元，其时正朔元旦之春。即把正月称为元，初一为旦。南朝梁人兰子云的《介雅》诗也云:四气新元旦，万寿初今朝。
　　还有个传说，是在4000多年前远古的尧舜盛世之时，尧天子在位时勤政于民为百姓办了很多好事，很受广大百姓爱戴，但因其子无才不太成器，他没把天子的皇位传给自己的儿子，而是传给了品德才能兼备的舜。尧对舜说:你今后一定要把帝位传交好，待我死后也可安心瞑目了。后来舜把帝位传给了治洪水有功的禹，禹亦像舜那样亲民爱民为百姓做了很多好事，都十分受人爱戴。后来人们把尧死后，舜帝祭祀天地和先帝尧的那一天，当作一年的开始之日，把正月初一称为元旦，或元正，这就是古代的元旦。
