🌕️Full Moon Emoji

What 🌕️ full moon means

Weather doubles as mood throughout. 🔥 long ago stopped meaning fire and now means excellent; 🌊 and ⚡ intensify rather than describe; 🌈 reads as LGBTQ+ pride at least as often as weather. Unicode encodes all eight lunar phases as separate characters, plus four moons with faces, and 🌚 is used mainly for deadpan mischief.

Unicode tags this one full, moon and space and files it under Travel & Places → Weather.

Copy variants
