The 🕎 emote, also known as the Menorah With Nine Branches emote, is a symbol of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. The menorah is a nine-branched candelabrum that is lit during the eight-day festival to commemorate the miracle of a single day's worth of oil burning for eight days in the ancient Jewish Temple. Each night of Hanukkah, an additional candle is lit until all nine branches are illuminated on the final night.
