🙌Raising Hands

Meaning of 🙌 Raising Hands Emoji

Raising Hands emoji is a picture of either two hands (looking similar to two ✋ Raised Hand emoji) or a person with the hands raised above the head. This body position in real life is typically associated with celebration and enjoying success — so this emoji is often used in precisely these meanings. For example, it may symbolize the user's joy because his favorite 🏈 Football team won a match or because he finished some challenging and exhausting project.

The other meanings are also possible — especially when it is complemented with different emojis.

However, it is essential to remember that this emoji also has a separate meaning from those above, which is widely used. This alternate meaning is that the two hands are framing (can be literally or figuratively) a photograph or motion picture shot in the same manner as the stereotypical Hollywood director sometimes shown making a similar gesture in movies or cartoons. So said, used in this way, this emoji adds a “frame” to the thing it’s referring to, suggesting that it is photogenic, beautiful, stunning, clever, a great photograph, suggestive of an iconic 📽 Movie theme, or any such elaboration of this idea.
