Right Half Black Star Symbol Meaning
⯩ (RIGHT HALF BLACK STAR, U+2BE9) is a stylized star-like glyph shown as a right half black star. In practice, it functions more as a bold decorative marker than a specific “meaning” word-to-word. Designers often use it to add emphasis near headings, labels, or callouts, while writers may place it as a small visual bullet. Because it’s an “arrow” category symbol, it can also suggest direction or progression when paired with other markers (for example, using it alongside arrows or step labels).
