Kronos

It marks Kronos, a hypothetical point in Uranian astrology.

Uranian astrology groups Kronos with other hypothetical points beyond Neptune, called Trans-Neptunian points, as additional chart factors. In a chart, ⯣ labels that point rather than a physical planet. A reader familiar with Uranian astrology may recognize the shorthand; outside that specialty, the chart key is the safest guide.

When did Kronos enter Uranian astrology?

The Kronos point belongs to a modern German astrological system.

Uranian astrology took shape in Germany in the 1920s under Alfred Witte. The Hamburg School's first rulebook, a guide to its system, included Kronos among its first four hypothetical planets when it was published in 1928.

The point's history is different from the character's: Unicode proposed ⯣ in 2016, long after Kronos entered the system. This is modern astrological notation, not a sign from ancient Greek writing.

How is the Kronos symbol used in a chart?

In charts, ⯣ labels a point in compact Uranian notation.

Uranian astrologers use it in chart listings, midpoint tables, which list halfway points between chart factors, and planetary-picture equations, compact formulas that combine chart factors. The surrounding factors supply the interpretation; ⯣ alone does not identify a life topic.

The glyph is drawn by the active font. If it appears as a box or substitute mark, that font may lack support; the display issue does not change which chart point it denotes.
