BLACK SUN WITH RAYS

About this character

U+2600, white sun with rays, is a typographic symbol depicting a radiant solar disc, frequently used in weather forecasts, astronomical contexts, and user interfaces to signify sunny conditions or the sun itself. The glyph derives from earlier alchemical and astronomical symbols for gold and the sun, subsequently standardized in the Miscellaneous Symbols block of Unicode. In programming, it often appears in UI strings, status indicators, or comment art. As a design element, it functions as a decorative dingbat in documents, while in writing it can serve as a visual shorthand in lists or infographics. Its clean geometry makes it a versatile, cross-platform icon for solar-related concepts.
