What does ๐ Sunrise mean?
The sun rising over the sea, with its reflection on the water. It is a classic good-morning emoji, also used for beach mornings, early starts and hopeful new beginnings. Many people send it for sunsets too, since the picture works either way, so it covers golden-hour photos and calm evenings by the water as well. ๐ shows a sunrise over mountains instead.
๐ Sunrise is an emoji from the Travel & Places category (city scenes & attractions), added in Emoji 0.6 in 2010. People use it in messages about morning, nature and sun.
