U+9ED3 "黓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+9ED3 "黓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that consists of the radical 黑 (meaning black or dark) on the left and the component 戈 (a spear or weapon) on the right, though its phonetic element is debated. In classical Chinese, particularly in ancient texts like the I Ching or certain historical records, this character is used as a name for the ninth Heavenly Stem (ren 壬) in a corrupt or alternative form, often associated with the color black and the concept of darkness or concealing. Its usage is rare in modern Chinese and Japanese, appearing primarily in specialized contexts such as classical literature, traditional calendars, or as part of historical nomenclature, making it an obscure character largely confined to scholarly or academic references.
