More About the Last Quarter Moon Symbol
The Last Quarter Moon symbol is ☾, encoded as Unicode U+263E with the character name LAST QUARTER MOON. It is a text character in the Miscellaneous Symbols block and can be copied into documents, labels, calendars, notes, and HTML. The exact outline depends on the selected font, but the encoded identity remains U+263E.
Use the title “Last Quarter Moon Symbol” when referring to this character. A broad page called “Moon Symbol” can accidentally combine several different characters, emoji, astronomical diagrams, and cultural emblems. This page is intentionally narrower. It does not claim that ☾ represents every moon phase, every crescent, the Moon as an astronomical body, a triple-moon emblem, or the Crescent Moon emoji.
The Unicode name is useful for character lookup, but it should not be treated as a complete scientific specification for lunar observation. In technical, educational, or calendar material, define the notation used by that document and do not assume that readers will interpret the glyph as a standardized phase diagram. When a precise lunar phase or time is important, include text or data in addition to the symbol.
The character is distinct from ☽ FIRST QUARTER MOON and from 🌙 CRESCENT MOON emoji. It can also be confused with typographic crescents or custom icons that have no Unicode identity. Check the code point when exact storage matters. Copying the symbol from this page preserves U+263E; changing the font changes only the appearance.
In HTML, use the literal UTF-8 character ☾, the decimal reference ☾, or the hexadecimal reference ☾. In CSS generated content, the escape is 263E. If the symbol communicates information in an interface, provide a text label such as “Last quarter moon” and test the selected font for legibility.
For taxonomy and internal linking, use the canonical slug for LAST QUARTER MOON and keep broad moon queries separate. Matching by U+263E avoids merging this character with first-quarter moon, crescent emoji, astronomy diagrams, or cultural emblems. The attached sources support the Unicode identity and encoding rules rather than broader lunar interpretation.
