1
The Moon, its left side bathed in light while the right side lies in shadow, the phase commonly counted as the seventh of the Moon’s eight.
2
In the moon's seventh phase, the left side is illuminated—often appearing yellow or white—while the right side remains dark gray, as if cloaked in shadow. Its surface is pockmarked with craters.
Because this emoji resembles a yin-yang, unlike other moon variants it symbolizes balance and harmony, and also night.
