What does the Ophiuchus emoji mean?
Literally, ⛎ represents Ophiuchus, a constellation in the night sky, whereas figuratively and in slang, it symbolizes the thirteenth zodiac sign, often used to acknowledge or express interest in astrology or the zodiac. Ophiuchus is sometimes referred to as the serpent bearer, and this emoji may be used to represent this mythological figure. In modern usage, ⛎ is also employed to signify a person's supposed thirteenth zodiac sign, which is not traditionally recognized in Western astrology.
