Unicode Version 17.0

U+2644 "♄" Saturn is a typographic symbol that represents the planet Saturn and its associated astrological and mythological attributes. In astrology, this glyph is used to denote the planet Saturn, which is linked to themes of discipline, structure, limitation, and time. The symbol itself is derived from the sickle or scythe of the Roman god Saturn, reflecting his role as a deity of agriculture, harvest, and eventually, in a more metaphorical sense, the passage of time and mortality. Beyond astrology, it is also employed in astronomy as the standard symbol for the planet, and in alchemy it once represented the metal lead.
