神農取穀說 據傳,遠古時,先祖神農派一男一女赴東方取穀種,教苗族人民種植,苗民才有五穀食用,後人尊稱他們為秋公秋婆。每年立秋,水田、旱土作物均將成熟,豐收已成定局,苗民都要赴趕秋集會舉行對歌、打鞦韆、跳鼓等歡慶活動,紀念神農與秋公秋婆。 1
愛情傳說 相傳,古時有位名為「巴貴達惹」的青年獵人,他長得高大英俊,獲得了許多姑娘的喜愛,但都被他婉言拒絕了。
同時有一位名為「乜娘」的苗族姑娘,擅長刺繡和繪畫。她的面容如花一般美麗,吸引蜜蜂飛來採蜜,繡出來的花草也同樣吸引了蝴蝶。
一天,乜娘在家門口繡花鞋,一隻突然飛來的鷹把鞋給叼走了。後來,巴貴達惹正好一箭射中了那隻鷹,並拾到這隻繡花鞋。這鞋做工精巧,巴貴達惹想,花鞋的主人一定聰明、美麗。
為了找到她,他利用趕秋場的機會,把一人坐的鞦韆改造成多人坐的鞦韆,這樣就能夠吸引很多姑娘前來。果然,各寨的姑娘都來了,果然巴貴達惹此法奏效,如願以償地找到乜娘,兩人結為恩愛的夫妻。從那之後,趕秋節也就成了苗族的傳統節日。 1

鞦韆 秋千,是趕秋節的核心器物。秋千通常是「八大秋」,可同時坐八人。高約十米,呈紡車狀,有8架車幅(付)。
其結構是以四根高約1.5丈的木柱兩兩扎為架子埋固在地上,兩架相距丈許。取粗木一根橫安在架上為軸,軸上鑿十字孔八個,穿上八根兩端街鑿有小孔安有橫樑的短木柱,每個橫樑繫一幅秋千,共有八幅,分為兩排兩輪,可同時坐八人打秋,因此被稱為八人秋。 1
