Han Character 𨺩

36522/42720

𨺩 is an old variant of 乾 (qián), the Heaven symbol in the I Ching, an ancient Chinese divination book. The Kangxi Dictionary traces this equivalence to Jin-era Wuyin Jiyun, a pronunciation dictionary dated 1212; a Korean note from 1760 argues that 𨺩 is the old form in an I Ching line about Heaven's movement. Taiwan's 2024 character-variant dictionary lists 乾 as standard and 𨺩 as a variant.

Why does 𨺩 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
