𝌼
U+1D33C "𝌼" Tetragram for Diminishment is a symbol from the Tai Xuan Jing, an ancient Chinese divination text composed by Yang Xiong. Representing a state of reduction, decay, or gradual lessening, it is one of the 81 tetragrams that form a complex system of cosmic and moral philosophy. In its original context, this tetragram warns against overreaching and emphasizes the natural process of decline that can precede renewal, much like autumn gives way to winter. Today, it is used in specialized scholarly, typographic, and occult contexts, though it remains a rare sight in everyday digital text.
