U+971B "霛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+971B "霛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character used in classical texts, composed of the "rain" radical (雨) over two "cloud" or "ghost" elements (鬼), which together convey meanings related to spirits, the supernatural, or the numinous realm. It is a variant form of the more common characters 靈 (líng, "spirit" or "divine") and 霝 (líng), sharing the same core sense of spiritual essence, efficacious power, or connection to the gods. Found infrequently in historical or literary contexts, "霛" represents a nuanced glyph within the extensive CJK Unified Ideographs block, reflecting the complex evolution of ideographic writing in East Asian scripts. Its usage today is largely confined to specialized philological study or typographic preservation.
