โ Meaning: A capital ‘U’ with a wave-like small curve joining connecting both extensions of the alphabet at the middle. This symbol seems to be engraved in white onto the top surface of a purple square.
The โ Ophiuchus emoji refers to the thirteenth zodiac sign that’s rarely used in the popular list of astrological signs. This emoji signifies the zodiac symbol of a serpent-bearer. Hence, suggesting a sense of ‘having a grip on poison/harm/danger’.
[ec e= “โ”]
How and When to Use the โ Ophiuchus Emoji
- Since the 13th zodiac is not as well-known as the list of 12, โ may not be brought into contexts of astrology or horoscope. But, it can be used in mythological and mythical frameworks, based on the symbol.
- Based on the Greek myth, Ophiuphus has a close relation to Asclepius; the god of medicine and healing. So, while sharing ‘healing’ based posts from a spiritual perspective or a medicinal POV, include โ – “Healing comes from within โ” or “Meditation is my medication โ”.
- Ophiuchus, if considered a zodiac, is merged in between Scorpio and Sagittarius (which doesn’t appear in astrological calendars). Hence, โ may symbolize a ‘cusp’ if not an actual and verified zodiac sign.
- A few examples for the previous point are – “Really? I thought she was a Gemini cusp โ” or “I seem to be grasping the best qualities from both Capricorn and Aquarius โ”
