U+5DFD "巽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5DFD "巽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the southeast cardinal direction in the traditional Eight Trigrams (Bagua) of I Ching philosophy, where it is associated with wind, penetration, and gentle influence. In classical Chinese texts, it also conveys meanings such as "to obey," "to yield," or "to be submissive," often with connotations of adaptability and humility. Beyond its trigram symbolism, the character is used in modern contexts for personal names, place names, and compound words related to direction or compliance. Its composition combines the radical for "two" or "above" with elements suggesting movement or dispersal, reflecting its semantic ties to the concept of wind spreading everywhere.
