Meaning & Usage
The 🌖 Waning Gibbous Moon emoji depicts the lunar phase where more than half of the moon is illuminated, but the illuminated portion is decreasing after the full moon. It shows a mostly full moon shape with a visible dark crescent on the right side. This emoji is commonly used to represent the moon, nighttime, lunar cycles, or related astrological concepts. It can also be used more generally to convey a sense of mystery, change, or the passage of time. The waning gibbous moon is one of the eight moon phase emojis, representing a specific stage in the lunar cycle between the full moon and the last quarter moon. This emoji was introduced in Unicode version 6.0 in 2010.
