St Patrick's Day sees the return of the shamrock as a token of the holiday
The four-leafed clover makes its grand return for a one-off special to celebrate St Patrick's Day. Its legacy however remains all year long with the world revelling in the opportunity of coming across one in their day-to-day lives, citing its lucky properties.
What Makes a Four-Leaf Clover Lucky? A four-leaf clover came into existence due to a mix-up in its core DNA, essentially sprouting another leaf for whatever reason. The origin of four-leaf clovers bringing good luck stems from ancient Celtic, or Druid, priests. They elevated the rarer four-leaf clovers to the status of good luck charms that warded against evil spirits.
Irish legend states that St. Patrick demonstrated the principle behind the Trinity using a shamrock, pointing to its three leaflets united by a common stalk. What is unclear is what plant he might have been holding.
