Left Right Arrow Through Small Circle Symbol Meaning
⥈ is “LEFT RIGHT ARROW THROUGH SMALL CIRCLE” (Unicode U+2948). Visually, it suggests movement or connection in both directions because the arrows point left and right, while the small circle adds a focal point at the center. In practical writing and design, it can act as a two-way directional indicator (for example, “transfer,” “bidirectional,” or “through/around”), or as a decorative glyph to separate or emphasize left-right concepts. Its most common usage is as a directional arrow in compact text where you need an unmistakable left↔right cue.
