What 🩎 means
It moves like a queen and a knight.
Fairy chess changes the usual pieces or rules in games and problems; this sign marks an extra piece.
In parts of Europe in the late Middle Ages, queens could jump like knights; that rule was reportedly known in Russia as late as 1772. An Indian manuscript from the 18th century names a distinct Amazon the giraffe. A 1617 chess book describes knight-rook and knight-bishop pieces.
Specialist chess notation, mainly for fairy-chess problems and variants.
In standard chess, this is a variant piece, not the ordinary queen.
