What does ♌ Leo emoji mean?
The Leo emoji ♌ depicts the sign of Leo, a constellation, and one of the 12 zodiac signs in astrology. It is commonly used to represent Leo, people whose zodiac sign is Leo, and astrology in general. According to astrology, people who were born between July 23 and August 22 have Leo as their sign. For this reason, you’re more likely to see the Leo emoji ♌ used during this time as people celebrate their birthdays.
Leo is commonly known as The Lion (Leo is Latin for “lion”). The Leo emoji ♌ usually depicts the symbol of Leo, a circle and squiggly line meant to represent a simplified lion. The emoji is frequently used with the Lion Face emoji 🦁.

Where does ♌ Leo emoji come from?
The Leo emoji ♌ was approved under Unicode 1.1 in 1993. On most major platforms, the emoji shows the symbol of Leo (a glyph that resembles a simplified drawing of a line) in white and imposed on a geometric shape. On Apple, Samsung, WhatsApp, Twitter, and Facebook, the Leo symbol is on a purple square with rounded corners. On Microsoft, the purple square has sharp corners and is surrounded by a black outline. On Google, the Leo symbol is instead on a yellow circle.
On Twitter, many people put the emoji representing their star sign next to their usernames in order to identify themselves. As is the case with all of the other zodiac signs, this is also true for the Leo emoji ♌.
When the Leo emoji ♌ is used, it is often accompanied by the word Leo itself. This is likely done to help identify what the symbol means, as it may not be familiar even to fans of astrology. Leo is commonly known as The Lion and so the Leo emoji ♌ is frequently used alongside the Lion Face emoji 🦁.
