What ๐Ÿงž means

A genie, or jinn, rising from a magic lamp, standing for wishes and the magic that grants them.

People send it with a wish: โ€œif I had a genie, I'd ask for three more weekends ๐Ÿงžโ€. It also means โ€œyour wish is my commandโ€ when someone agrees to a request. Aladdin fans and Halloween costumes use it too.

Genies come from the jinn of Arabic and Islamic tradition, which are more complex than the wish-granting figure of films. It has no skin tone options.
