U+26B8 "⚸" Black Moon Lilith Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+26B8 "⚸" Black Moon Lilith is a typographic symbol used primarily in astrology to represent the Black Moon Lilith, which is not a physical celestial body but a mathematical point calculated from the moon's elliptical orbit around Earth. This point, often called the lunar apogee, signifies the farthest distance between the Earth and the moon and is associated in astrological interpretation with hidden desires, primal instincts, and aspects of the shadow self. The symbol itself resembles a crescent moon with a cross underneath, visually linking it to lunar imagery while also invoking a sense of mystery and depth. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for its use in digital text and astrology software, though it remains relatively niche compared to more common astrological glyphs.
