What 𮜾 means
It stands for 曜 here: sunlight or brilliance.
A collation compares versions of a text. In 佛祖統紀 (Chronicle of the Buddhas and Patriarchs), a Chinese Buddhist history completed in 1269, an editor records 𮜾 in one witness where the printed edition reads 曜.
曜 also names the sun, moon, and five visible planets together as the seven luminaries. Japanese weekday names such as 月曜日 (Monday) preserve the character in that sky-related use.
