A fist raised in the air that may be used as a celebratory gesture: the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fist_pump">fist pump</a>.&nbsp;Can also be used to represent <a href="/keycap-digit-zero/" title="0⃣ Keycap 0">zero</a> items, due to a lack of any fingers being held up.

Sometimes used as a symbol of&nbsp;<a href="http://blog.emojipedia.org/the-resistance-will-be-emojified/">resistance</a>&nbsp;or defiance. Variations with darker skin tone are commonly used <a href="/raised-fist-dark-skin-tone/">to represent the #BlackLivesMatter movement</a>.

The expression of the face of this emoji can vary across platforms, with some designs featuring a <a href="/neutral-face">neutral</a> face while others are shown smiling to various degrees.&nbsp;

Apple and Huewai&#39;s designs notably only display half a face, likely to make the saluting hand more prominent when this emoji is viewed in smaller sizes.

<div id="professor_prebid-root">This emoji went viral across Twitter in late 2022 following the&nbsp;news that the platform would be dramatically reducing its staff numbers as part of a company-wide restructuring following its acquisition by Elon Musk. <a href="https://blog.emojipedia.org/10-years-of-viral-emoji-moments/">Learn more here.</a></div>

A heart shaded completely black. May be used to express morbidity, sorrow, or a form of dark humor, but despite the color remains <a href="https://blog.emojipedia.org/what-every-heart-emoji-really-means/">most commonly used for love and affection</a>.

Black Heart

Two hands raised in the air, celebrating success or another joyous event.

<a href="/au-kddi/type-d-2/raising-hands/">Originally&nbsp;animated</a> to show hands being raised, as might be done along with the the exclamation&nbsp;Banzai!&nbsp;in Japan. Now more commonly only shows the hands in the air.

It can also represent&nbsp;a respectful greeting or show of adoration many in Southeast Asian religions and cultures, such as the Hindu namaste or Buddhist a&ntilde;jali mudra.

Rarely used as&nbsp;a&nbsp;high-five, despite often being suggested as one by emoji keyboard search features. <a href="https://blog.emojipedia.org/emojiology-folded-hands/">More about this emoji and its possible meanings</a>.

A previous&nbsp;version of this&nbsp;emoji&nbsp;displayed a <a href="/apple/ios-6.0/folded-hands/" title="🙏 Person With Folded Hands on Apple iOS 6.0">yellow burst of light behind the two hands</a>&nbsp;on iOS.
