Meaning of the Crown Emoji
Interpretation of this symbol usually does not cause any difficulties. In different traditions and cultures, it almost always means the same thing. Symbol of supreme power, whether it be monarchical power or the highest step in some other hierarchy.
The origin of this symbol and, of course, the headdress itself comes from the ancient wreath, a sign of glory and honor and from diadems – temporal head ornaments of the priests of the Middle Ages, Egypt and the Middle East.
The crown is a symbol of superiority, supreme dignity, power. It is also associated with the symbolism of light as a personification of spiritual power, charisma, and that is why it is usually made of gold and precious stones. In iconography and painting, a metal crown or diadem, like a halo, are symbols of spiritual enlightenment.
The crown itself is not just a symbol of power and authority, the crown represents spiritual enlightenment and strength. In painting, the crown symbolizes victory, dignity and immortality.
The meaning of the image of the crown differed in different cultures: In the British culture it is a symbol of recognition of the power of the king. In Latin America, the name of a loved one was written under the crown to express devotion and high feelings.
Interestingly, there are quite a few types of crowns, and for the Unicode emoji, a golden crown was chosen, with five peaks and multicolored gems. In the classical classification, such a crown is called a Count’s crown.
The Use of the Crown Emoji
Of course, first of all, the Crown is a majestic symbol of supreme secular (earthly) and spiritual (divine) power, a sign of power, dignity, chosenness, glory and victory. In all world religions, the crown symbolizes spiritual enlightenment and immortality. In red (Scottish) Freemasonry emblem of the crown serves as a symbol of supreme wisdom and divine enlightenment.
