Special characters like ♅ and ♆ are known as astrological symbols for Uranus and Neptune, respectively. The ability to display these symbols correctly depends on the font being used and the character encoding supported by the font. Some fonts may not have these specific characters included in their character set, which results in the symbols not being displayed correctly even if the font is changed. This issue is more common with less common symbols or characters. One way to potentially overcome this issue is by using a font that explicitly supports these symbols.

You can try using fonts specifically designed to include a broad range of special characters and symbols, like Symbol, Arial Unicode MS, or Segoe UI Symbol. If the forum platform or website has restrictions on the type of characters that can be displayed, it might limit the range of symbols that can be used. In such cases, the symbols may appear as boxes or question marks if they are not supported. You can also try using HTML character entities to display these symbols consistently across different platforms. For example:
  • ♅ (U+2645): ☭
  • ♆ (U+2646): ☮
By using these HTML codes, you can ensure that the symbols appear correctly regardless of the font being used.
