Unicode Version 17.0

U+2F70 "⽰" Kangxi Radical Spirit is a graphical representation of Kangxi radical 113, which signifies "spirit" or "spiritual being," and is derived from the traditional Chinese character "示" meaning "to show" or "to manifest." This radical is commonly found in characters related to religious or ceremonial concepts, such as "祭" (sacrifice) and "祈" (prayer), and it visually suggests a connection to the celestial or supernatural realms through its depiction of a small table or altar used for offerings.
