U+0FD6 "" Left-Facing Svasti Sign Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Serif Tibetan Source: Browser Default

U+0FD6 "" Left-Facing Svasti Sign is a Tibetan script symbol that represents a leftward spinning variation of the ancient swastika motif, distinct from the right-facing version (U+0FD5). This character is part of the Tibetan block within Unicode and holds religious and cultural significance in Tibetan Buddhism and Bon traditions, where it often symbolizes auspiciousness, eternity, and the eternal cycle of life, though its meaning is strictly tied to its traditional Buddhist and Hindu contexts and should not be conflated with the later negative associations of the Nazi swastika, which uses a different orientation and symbol set.
