What does this kanji mean?

Question

What does this kanji mean? Is there more than one meaning, more than one interpretation?

Answer 1

The kanji is:

眷

「眷{かえり}みる」 means "to look back on", "to reflect on", etc. The kanji can mean those on its own as well.

The on-reading is 「けん」.

Unless you are planning on teaching Japanese literature at a Japanese graduate school, you would not need to know this kanji.
