History of the four leaf clovers: The four-leaf clover, or shamrock, is thought of as a good luck charm in part because of its rarity in nature. It is estimated that the chances of finding a four-leaf clover are one in 10, 000. The origin of the superstition dates back as far as 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, it has become a symbol of good luck and good fortune. According to irish beliefs, the superstition 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. According to an ancient european legend, anyone finding a four-leaf clover will also find happiness since, being very rare, it is considered to be a powerful talisman. In a famous story, the life of napoleon bonaparte was saved when, on the field of battle, he stopped to pluck a four-leaf clover, and successfully dodged a bullet. There is a million-to-one chance of finding a five-leaf clover - the individual parts of which are thought to bring love, wealth, health, luck and success, as well as prosperity and fortune.
