Neptune Symbol ♆

Neptune Symbol is ♆, U+2646 NEPTUNE. The character is the encoded planetary sign used in astronomy references, astrology charts, planet lists, and historical notation. Its trident-like appearance does not make it interchangeable with a generic trident emoji or an illustration of the Roman god Neptune. Clear strings include “Neptune: ♆,” “Legend: ♆ Neptune,” and a planet list in which the written name accompanies the glyph. In specialist charts the label may be omitted after a legend has been established, but general readers benefit from seeing the word Neptune. Copy ♆ as U+2646. Different fonts may widen the prongs, alter the central stem, or change the overall weight. These are rendering variations. A text lookup or database should retain the code point rather than storing a decorative picture. Do not identify ♆ as Jupiter or Uranus, and do not replace it with 🔱 when the encoded planet sign is required. A compact interface needs the accessible name “Neptune,” while an educational table should define the planetary symbols before using them repeatedly. For HTML, use literal UTF-8 ♆, decimal ♆, or hexadecimal ♆. Recopy the sample “Accessible label: Neptune symbol,” confirm the final text still contains U+2646, and check that the visible heading names Neptune. This final check protects Neptune Symbol from font substitution, accidental character loss, and intent drift.
