Moon Phase Emojis - A Review

Moon Emojis - and other space emojis

Emoji designers created a nice range of moon emoji, astronomy emojis and space emojis. My favorite emojis are the Moon Phase Emojis.

Here are the moon emojis, astronomy emojis and space emojis as real emojis that can be selected individually (or in groups) and copied. These look different on each browser. The moon emoji is my personal favorite.

Note: There is currently no official lunar eclipse emoji, nor is there a solar eclipse emoji. Until the emoji designers create real eclipse emojis, I suggest using the black versions of the Moon and Sun. Use ☾ for a lunar eclipse (it doesn’t look like any Moon phase — it actually somewhat resembles an eclipse) and ☀ for a solar eclipse emoji — because the black spot with lines looks like a total solar eclipse showing the Sun’s corona.
