The symbol of Virgo, the sixth sign of the zodiac. Depicted as a stylized M with a curled loop or crossed tail, representing a maiden. Virgo is associated with the element of earth.

Typically shown as a white Virgo symbol on a purple square background, though Google's design uses a green circular background. The animated Noto Color emoji design rotates to display the Virgo constellation.

As with other zodiac sign emojis, this emoji predates the inclusion of emojis within Unicode and was initially made available as a standard Unicode character in 1991. It was then added to early Japanese emoji keyboards by Docomo in 1999, though select pre-emoji Japanese icon sets also included depictions of this symbol.

Virgo was approved as part of Unicode 1.1 in 1993 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
