About
This set gathers the sky in text form: the sun, cloud, rain, snow and comet weather symbols you can drop into a caption or a weather post with one tap. Unicode gives ☀, ☁, ☂, ☃ and ☄ a text-style default, so on most phones, laptops and e-readers they show as a crisp single-tone outline that takes the color of the text around it, although a few apps still swap in a color emoji. That makes them ideal when a full-color 🌧️ would look too loud next to your typography.
The little astronomy details are what set this page apart from the shapes and stars nearby. There are two suns that look almost identical: ☀ is the 'black sun with rays' and ☼ the 'white sun with rays', so pick whichever contrasts better with your background. The moons ☽ and ☾ read as a waxing and a waning crescent facing opposite directions — handy for a day/night pairing — while ☉ is the astronomer's and astrologer's dedicated mark for the Sun itself, a dot inside a circle.
If you keep an astro bio, the twelve zodiac sign glyphs — Aries through Pisces — are the usual shorthand, and people love stacking their 'big three' (sun, moon and rising) as a compact signature. These astrology symbols are quick to copy one at a time: pair a sign with ☉ for your Sun placement or ☽ for your Moon, and you get a bio line that reads instantly to anyone who follows the zodiac, without spelling a word out.
For horoscope and natal-chart work, the deeper cuts matter. ☊ is the ascending or North Node and ☋ the descending or South Node — the karmic axis chart readers reference constantly — and full planet symbols for Mercury, Venus, Mars and the rest sit nearby for building a profile. On the weather side, ☇ is a plain lightning bolt, ☈ a thunderstorm, ♨ the hot-springs mark you often see on maps, and ☄ a comet for something rarer than a passing cloud.
Copying is the same everywhere: tap or click a glyph and it lands on your clipboard, ready to paste into Instagram, a Discord status, a Notion page or a weather widget. On Windows a few of these have Alt-codes (hold Alt and type 9788 on the numeric keypad for ☼), but copy-paste is faster and works identically on macOS, iOS and Android. Nothing here is an image, so it stays selectable, searchable text wherever you send it.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the symbol for each zodiac sign?
- The twelve signs run ♈ Aries, ♉ Taurus, ♊ Gemini, ♋ Cancer, ♌ Leo, ♍ Virgo, ♎ Libra, ♏ Scorpio, ♐ Sagittarius, ♑ Capricorn, ♒ Aquarius and ♓ Pisces. Each is a single Unicode character, so you can copy just the one you need.
- How do I type the moon symbol?
- The quickest way is to copy ☽ (first-quarter crescent) or ☾ (last-quarter crescent) straight from this page. On Windows you can also hold Alt and type 9789 or 9790 on the numeric keypad; on Mac and mobile, copy-paste is the reliable route.
- Are there planet symbols too?
- Yes — the classic astrology set includes ☿ Mercury, ♀ Venus, ♂ Mars, ♃ Jupiter and ♄ Saturn, alongside ☉ for the Sun. For chart work you also get the lunar nodes ☊ (North Node) and ☋ (South Node).
- Can I use zodiac symbols in a bio?
- Absolutely. They are ordinary Unicode characters, so they paste cleanly into Instagram, TikTok, Threads and Discord bios. Keep in mind that the twelve signs ♈ to ♓ show as color emoji on most phones, while ☉ and ☽ stay as plain text. A common format is your sign plus ☉ for Sun and ☽ for Moon to show your placements at a glance.
- What's the difference between ☀ and ☼?
- ☀ is the 'black sun with rays' (a solid, filled disc) and ☼ is the 'white sun with rays' (an outline with a dot). They mean the same thing visually — pick whichever gives better contrast against your background color.
- Will these show up as color emoji?
- Some of them will. Unicode makes the twelve zodiac signs ♈ to ♓ emoji by default (Emoji_Presentation=Yes), so most phones and computers draw them in color; putting U+FE0E, the text variation selector, right after a sign asks for the single-color outline instead, but not every app honors it. ☀, ☁, ☂, ☃, ☄, ♨, ♀ and ♂ work the other way round: they default to text and usually look like single-color outlines, turning into color emoji only with U+FE0F after them or in the few apps that switch them on their own. The rest, ☼, ☽, ☾, ☇, ☈, ☉, ☊, ☋, ☌, ☍, ☿, ♁, ♃, ♄, ♅, ♆, ♇ and ⚥, are not emoji at all and always stay single-color text that matches the words around them.
