What 𗸲 means
It is a Tangut verb meaning “to give birth.” A Tangut dictionary indexes it as L1368.
The Tangut script was created around 1036 for the government, schools, and Buddhist translations of Western Xia, a historical state. After the state fell, writing continued in limited use; the latest known example of Tangut writing is dated 1502. Tangut is a logographic script: its characters represent words or parts of words. That is a structural parallel with Chinese writing, but 𗸲 is Tangut, not Chinese.
It reads as a scholarly or historical-script reference in a message.
A box means the font lacks Tangut support; the character itself has not changed.

1Why does 𗸲 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.
