What does 𪈽 mean?
It is a variant form of 鸞, the name of a mythical bird.
The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, describes 鸞 as a red, five-coloured, chicken-shaped spirit bird, with calls that match the five musical notes and an appearance linked to songs of praise. The Classic of Mountains and Seas, an early book of myth and geography, says its appearance foretells peace. Classical texts also use 鸞 for a small bell attached to a horse; that bell sense is also written 鑾.
