U+79AC "禬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+79AC "禬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used primarily in classical or literary contexts, representing a type of ancient sacrificial ritual or ceremony, specifically a prayer or offering made to remove calamities or seek blessings, often associated with exorcism or the expiation of misfortune. Its structure combines the "示" (spirit or altar) radical on the left, relating to spiritual or religious matters, with the phonetic component "會" on the right, which contributes to its sound and meaning of assembly or gathering, suggesting a communal ritual act. This character is not commonly used in modern everyday Chinese but appears in historical texts, such as those discussing Zhou dynasty rites or Shandong oracle bone inscriptions, where it denotes a formal propitiatory ceremony conducted by ancient rulers or priests.
