Genuine 4 Leaf Clover Pressed Flower for St. Patrick's Day Crafts

The four-leaf clover, or shamrock, is considered a good luck charm primarily due to its rarity in nature. The chances of finding a four-leaf clover are estimated to be one in 10,000. The origin of this superstition can be traced back to the biblical story of Adam and Eve. It is believed that when Eve was cast out of the Garden of Eden, she took a four-leaf clover with her to remind her of the lushness of paradise. Since then, the four-leaf clover has become a symbol of good luck and good fortune.

According to Irish beliefs, the superstition surrounding the four-leaf clover stems from Druid priests who used the shamrock for healing the sick, in worship rituals, and to ward off evil. Prior to this, St. Patrick had found the three-leaf clover to be an extraordinary plant. In ancient Egypt, when a couple got married, it was traditional to give them a four-leaf clover, which was a blessing of their union and a representation of their undying love for one another.

In addition to the Irish beliefs, an ancient European legend suggests that anyone finding a four-leaf clover will also find happiness, as it is considered a powerful talisman due to its rarity. In a famous story, the life of Napoleon Bonaparte was saved when, on the battlefield, he stopped to pluck a four-leaf clover and successfully dodged a bullet.

Interestingly, there is a million-to-one chance of finding a five-leaf clover. The individual parts of a five-leaf clover are thought to bring love, wealth, health, luck, and success, as well as prosperity and fortune.
