What ๐Ÿšถโ€โžก๏ธ means

A person walking toward the right, the mirror image of ๐Ÿšถ. It means walking, moving on, or heading forward.

Its main use is direction. In left-to-right text a figure facing right seems to go forward, as in ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿšถโ€โžก๏ธ๐Ÿข for leaving home for work. It reads as progress and momentum rather than a retreat.

On older devices it may split into ๐Ÿšถ and โžก๏ธ side by side.
