What is a four-leaf clover?

The clover is a small plant commonly found in meadows, it is formed by a stem with three rounded leaves at the top, usually of equal size, and sometimes it is a stem with four or more leaves, born from this plant. This is a strange anomaly, which generates what we all know as a four-leaf clover.

Due to its rarity and difficulty in finding one, the four-leaf clover has become something magical, mystical and many consider it, a lucky charm. It is not known what is the cause that determines the formation of the extra leaflets, which are usually smaller than the three main ones.

Some speak of soil composition, others of genetics, but they are difficult to find, and only those lucky enough succeed.

What to do with a four-leaf clover if you find one?

Use it as an amulet

If you need some luck in your life, you can keep it with you as an amulet. The best way to keep them is to spread them between the pages of a book and let them dry. You can also put it in a little plastic bag to prevent it from damaging, this is a great way to carry it with you whenever you go, to maximize its positive energy.

Ancient beliefs

Growing up in Sardinia, my grandpa once told me that in his hometown there were numerous stories related to this plant, which in dialect is called Alba Lùccia, or shining grass, it is said that those who manage to find one could solve any problem, especially of an economic nature.

It is also said, that an Alba Lùccia found before sunrise, on the morning of the feast of Saint John, should be packaged in amulets and be worn around the neck, and this will make you not fear anything. There are those that when they find a four-leaf clover, must eat one leaf, hide another in a hole in the external wall of their house, and keep the last two leaves inside the house, to bring luck for themselves and their families.

Other Sardinian stories tell us how to find four-leaf clovers, by observing the behavior of goats on Easter morning, if before the sunrise a young goat, who has never had kids, kneels to graze, it means that they have found a four-leaf clover to graze on.

As early as 1620 A.D. druids talked about four-leaf clovers and their ability to bring luck and keep evil spirits away.

We can go even further with the legends linked to these leaves, it is said that Eve took a four-leaf clover away from the Garden of Eden, to take luck from the world in which she had been exiled.

Some believe that each leaf of the four-leaf clover has a particular meaning:

The first represents hope
The second represents faith
The third represents love
The fourth represents luck

In Ireland, the clover is the national symbol and is called a shamrock, a name derived from the Irish Gaelic seamróg, which means young clover or small clover.

Around the fifth century, Saint Patrick used clover to explain to the Irish the Catholic mystery of the Trinity, and some say that the fourth leaf, when present, may indicate either the grace of God, or man/humanity.

Although the reason why clover is so important and has become a symbol of fertility, abundance, stability, fruitfulness, is due to the fact that it was for a long time the most abundant livelihood for livestock on Irish soil, also the four-leaf clover being a lucky charm, contains four different characteristics in each of its four leaves.

Respect, Abundance, Love, and Health. Finally, you can read in books of dream interpretation that if someone dreams of a four-leaf clover, it is an indication of growth, financial gain, success, good health, and fulfillment.

Now that we know the positive notes of this small seedling, go and look in a meadow and start looking for one, even if you don’t find one, you were still lucky enough to be able to walk around a meadow and enjoy the relaxing scents which also have the property to relax you.
