St. Patrick’s Day and Four-Leaf Clover Superstitions

March 15, 2009 · Posted in Fun Stuff, Holiday Parties 

There are all sorts of' lucky charms including horseshoes, rabbit's feet, and naturally, the four-leaf clover.  Everybody knows a four-leaf clover brings good luck doesn't it?

there's no real reason why the four-leaf clover should be considered 'lucky' aside from the fact that four-leaf clovers were limited at one time.  They are no longer scarce.  There are fields of four-leaf clover today. Still, the notion persists.

Some say the four-leaf clover has its roots in religion.  They assert that the four-leaf clover was what Eve grabbed when God outcast her and Adam from the Garden of Eden to remind her of nirvana.

Others say that the 4 leaves of the clover represent faith, Hope, Love, and Luck.

Still others say that the first three leaves of a four-leaf clover represent the Holy Trinity the daddy, The boy, and the holy spirit and the 4th leaf represents the grace of Almighty God.

Four-leaf clovers are abundant today, but they are still sold as good luck charms.  You can purchase four-leaf clovers encased in plastic on key chains.  Four-leaf clover shapes are often used for charms on charm bracelets and other jewelery.  Some have even been known to have a four-leaf clover tattooed onto their body for luck.

The four-leaf clover is AKA a shamrock, and it has been said that if you carry a shamrock with you, it will bring you the luck of the Irish.  That is supposed to be a great thing.

as far as we know, there's never been any systematic testing applied to the luck factor of the four-leaf clover.  There's no scientific proof available.  Still, on the outside probability that there's some good luck supplied by a four-leaf clover, we might as well carry one.  It cannot hurt.
