U+86DB "蛛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+86DB "蛛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that means "spider," often seen in compounds like 蜘蛛 (zhīzhū), which refers to the arachnid itself. This character belongs to the Kangxi radical 虫 (insect or creature) on the left side, indicating its connection to living organisms, while the right component 朱 (red) originally contributed to the phonetic pronunciation in Middle Chinese. In traditional Chinese, the spider is a symbol of patience and weaving, sometimes associated with good fortune when it descends on its silk, as in the folk belief that a spider dropping from the ceiling heralds a happy event.
