Heart emoji meanings for Valentine’s Day.

One of the most popular ways to express your love for someone is through the emojis that you include in their daily communications, this goes especially for that all-important Valentine’s Day Facebook post, tweet or text message.

We all know the scenario, we want to write a paragraph that sums up our feelings for our significant other on yours and their Facebook page, but sometimes a picture speaks a thousand words, in this case, an emoji does! The heart emoji character was in fact the most used word in 2014 on Facebook, Twitter, blog networks and even news outlets!

We have compiled a short list of some of the heart shaped and themed emojis that you should or shouldn’t be using in this year’s expression of love across social media, text message, and of course, our message medals that you can personalise and send with our cuddly gifts.

Green Heart

know your green emoji meaning

Green doesn’t necessary mean keen in emoji terms. This heart colour variation has two meanings with the most popular being for people to express their green and spiritual love connection with someone. The other and less Valentine’s meaning is the ‘green with envy’ emotion! Yes, be warned with using this emoji in your messages, it could show signs of jealousy to your partner about their past relationships, or their demeanour.

If you are a regular user of Snapchat you will of course recognise the yellow heart as it appears next to the contact that you snap the most. So already this heart radiates with closeness, clarity and in many cases, a heart of gold. The yellow heart emoji can also symbolise sunshine and new beginnings, making it a great emoji to include with a Valentine’s message if you recently have become attached to someone.
