U+514C "兌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+514C "兌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that originally means "to exchange," "to convert," or "to change," and it is also associated with the concept of "opening" or "passing through" in ancient texts. In the context of the I Ching, it represents the hexagram for "Joy" or "Lake," symbolizing openness, communication, and the pleasure of mutual exchange. The character has been simplified in modern Chinese to "兑" (U+5151), but the traditional form "兌" retains its classical usage in historical and philosophical writings, particularly in Confucian and Daoist literature. Its structure combines the radical for "eight" (八) over "mountain" or "hill" (丘 in older forms), though its etymology reflects an image of a person speaking or conducting a transaction, emphasizing the act of giving and receiving.
