U+6712 "朒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+6712 "朒" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that traditionally relates to the moon's phases, specifically describing the crescent moon or the period when the moon is new and its light is just beginning to appear. In classical Chinese texts, it is often used to denote the first day of the lunar month, or more precisely, the moment when the moon's orbit brings it into conjunction with the sun, making it visible again after the new moon. This character has also seen occasional use in academic or literary contexts as a substitute for related terms like "朔" (new moon) or to describe a sense of imperfect or incomplete illumination, though it is not common in everyday modern writing.
