North West Arrow Crossing North East Arrow Symbol Meaning
⤲ (Unicode U+2932) is named “NORTH WEST ARROW CROSSING NORTH EAST ARROW” and belongs to the Arrows category. The visual forms two arrow directions that cross: one pointing toward the north-west and the other toward the north-east. In common usage, this can imply intersection, rerouting, a crossing connection, or the idea that two paths meet and overlap. Because it’s a directional crossing mark rather than a full “X,” it’s often chosen when you want to indicate that movement happens in both directions at once. It can also work as a decorative separator or emphasis mark in text-based layouts.
Common uses
- •Labeling crossing routes in simple diagrams or flow descriptions
- •Indicating a UI transition where two navigation directions intersect
- •Decorating section headings to suggest “overlap” or “merge”
- •Marking a connection point in schematics or mind maps (text-only versions)
- •Using as a visual cue in posts, comments, or forms to draw attention
