North East Arrow Crossing North West Arrow Symbol Meaning
⤱ visually represents two crossing arrow directions: one pointing toward the north east and another toward the north west. Because the arrows intersect, the symbol commonly communicates interaction between paths—such as routing that crosses, changing direction at an intersection, or combining two directional flows. It’s typically used as a concise icon-like marker in text, UI labels, diagrams, and instructions where space is limited. Depending on your context, it can suggest “crossing,” “switching lanes,” “merge/cross,” or “two routes interacting,” without needing extra words.
