自然な表現

November 23 is Labor Thanksgiving Day in Japan. It is an ancient ritual called Harvest Festival.

1. I assume this is what you wanted to say here.
Oh, that's less than 10 days away. What is the significance of the Harvest Festival? What kind of food is typically eaten on Labor Thanksgiving Day in Japan?

There is no special menu for Labor Thanksgiving Day, such as New Year's Day dishes or Christmas cakes. However, I usually make cooked rice with fresh chestnuts.
In the ritual, the Emperor makes the season's first offering of freshly harvested rice to the gods and then partakes of the rice himself.

1. Consider using the preposition "during" here which is defined as - at some time between the beginning and the end of a period.
That sounds like a delicious and meaningful tradition. Do you think the Emperor's offering of rice to the gods is a way of expressing gratitude for the harvest, or is it something else?

I think the Emperor's offering of rice to the gods is not just a way of expressing gratitude for the harvest but also play for the next season's harvest.

I think the Emperor's offering of rice to the gods is not just a way of expressing gratitude for the harvest but also a prayer for the next season's harvest.
