What Does the ๐ love letter Emoji Mean?
An envelope with a heart, either sealing it or drawn on the front. It is a love letter specifically, which makes it one of the few emoji that names a genre of writing rather than an object or an emotion. The heart sits where a wax seal would, which is a nice piece of design nobody comments on.

About love letter Emoji
Usage: Valentine's Day drives an enormous annual spike. Beyond that it marks affectionate messages of all kinds, including between friends, where the romantic reading is understood by everyone involved as playful rather than literal. Newsletters and mailing lists have adopted it heavily, which has slightly diluted the original meaning without replacing it.
Encoded in Unicode 6.0 in 2010 from Japanese carrier sets. Its survival is notable given that physical letter-writing had already declined sharply by then: the character describes a practice most of its users have never actually carried out.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does ๐ mean?
A love letter. It names a genre of writing rather than an object or a feeling, which makes it unusual among emoji and slightly more specific than people assume.
Is ๐ only romantic?
No. It is widely used between friends where the romantic framing is understood as playful, and newsletters have adopted it so thoroughly that the sense has broadened.
Why does the heart sit where it does?
It occupies the position of a wax seal on the envelope flap. The detail is deliberate and gives the character a period feel that suits what it depicts.
