North West Triangle-headed Arrow Symbol Meaning
⭦ is a Unicode arrow symbol named “NORTH WEST TRIANGLE-HEADED ARROW” (U+2B66). Visually, it points from the current position toward the upper-left, making it a straightforward way to represent “go north-west,” “move up-left,” or “direction toward the top-left.” In practice, it’s often used in interfaces, diagrams, and text to label navigation, indicate a pathway, or suggest alignment/adjustment toward the upper-left. Because it’s a character, it can be used consistently across platforms that support Unicode arrows, and it pairs well with other symbols when you need directional cues.
