What Is the Up Two Headed Arrow Small Circle Entity?

Up Two Headed Arrow Small Circle (⥉) is the Unicode character at U+2949 (UPWARDS TWO-HEADED ARROW WITH SMALL CIRCLE) in Supplemental Arrows-B. It is a two-headed upward arrow with a small circle — used in logic notation and specialized technical diagrams.

All five ways to produce ⥉ in a single document (plus a short label).

html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Up Two Headed Arrow Small Circle</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\2949";
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Using Hex Code: &#x2949;</p>
  <p>Using HTML Code: &#10569;</p>
  <p>Using Named Entity: &Uarrocir;</p>
  <p id="point">Using CSS Entity: </p>
  <p>Typed directly: &#x2949;</p>
  <p>Logic &Uarrocir; notation</p>

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+2949 → &#x2949; in HTML. The browser turns it into the glyph.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10569 → &#10569;. Same result as hex.

3. Named: &Uarrocir; is the HTML5 name for U+2949. Easiest to read in source — and case-sensitive.

4. CSS: use \2949 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that glyph after the paragraph text.

5. Typed / label: fine in UTF-8 pages. The Logic &Uarrocir; notation line shows a common usage pattern.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with this symbol.

Case

Entity names are case-sensitive

&Uarrocir; is U+2949 (with circle). &Uarr; is U+219F (without). Do not swap them.

Look-alikes

With circle ≠ without

U+2949 includes the small circle. U+219F is the plain two-headed up arrow.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\2949 belongs in CSS. &Uarrocir; / &#x2949; / &#10569; belong in HTML.

Fonts

Check the glyph

Supplemental Arrows-B coverage varies. If the mark is missing, describe the relation in nearby text.

A11y

Do not rely on the icon alone

Screen readers may not name this symbol clearly. Keep explanatory labels nearby.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish with ; — write &Uarrocir;, not &Uarrocir.
