U+7227 "爧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7227 "爧" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and highly complex Chinese logograph composed of the fire radical 火 on the left and the phonetic component 靈 on the right, visually evoking a sense of radiant or supernatural light. Historically, this character has been used in classical Chinese texts to describe the flickering or brilliant glow of fire, often in poetic or mystical contexts. Its exceptional rarity means it is not included in modern standard character sets like the commonly used GB2312 or Big5 encodings, making it primarily of interest to paleographers, typeface designers, and scholars of ancient script.
