Depicts the moon as a cratered disk, mostly illuminated by gold or silver, but with a dark crescent to its right.
Can be used to represent the moon, nighttime, outer space, and astronomy.
Can also be used to express a sense of enchantment or eerie.
Not to be confused with the moon, although their applications may overlap.
Used as part of the moon emoji creepy memoji.
