Shamrocks, Four-Leaf Clover and Three-Leaf Clover
The Legend of the Lucky Shamrock
Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, used the three leaves of the shamrock, a three-leaf clover, to describe the Trinity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. More recently, the four-leaf clover has said three of the leaves represent the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. And, the fourth leaf represents God’s Gared.
While most Shamrocks are three-leaved, it is believed that a rare four-leaf clover, will bring you good luck. Find one and see just how lucky you will be.
There are many varieties of shamrocks, or clover. Some people wonder what variety is lucky. We do not doubt that all four-leaf clovers will bring you luck. Find one and see for yourself!
Did You Know? Allegedly, a four-leaf clover is a mutation of the three-leaf variety. Do you believe this!? It doesn’t matter to me, as long as it brings me luck!
