Lucky Clover Good Luck Charm

Luck of the Fryish ( Irish )

Lucky-Four-Leaf-Clover

Couldn’t you brighten someone’s day with a four-leaf clover?

You probably associate four-leaf clovers with St. Patrick and Shamrocks, but the tradition started long before that. In the early days of Ireland, the Druids believed that they could see evil spirits coming when they carried a shamrock, or three-leaf clover, giving them a chance to get away in time! They thought four-leaf clovers offered magical protection, and warded off bad luck.

The Irish often say that the green hills of the Emerald Isle (Ireland) contain more four-leaf clovers than anywhere else. Hence, the “luck o’ the Irish.”

Each leaf of the clover represents something very special: 1) hope, 2) faith, 3) love, and 4) luck! In Irish tradition the Shamrock or Three-leaf Clover represents the Holy Trinity. One leaf for the Father, one for the Son and one for the Holy Spirit. When a Shamrock is found with the fourth leaf, it represents God’s Grace.

Children in the Middle Ages believed that they could see fairies if they carried a four-leaf clover. It became a great game for them to search the garden first for a four-leaf clover, and again for fairies!

The odds of finding a four-leaf clover have been calculated at 10,000 to 1! If you do find one, you are lucky indeed.

The mystique of the four-leaf clover continues today. If you find a four leaf clover, it is believed to be an omen of good luck.

Don’t You Know Someone Who Could Use A Bit of Luck?

The Luck on the Irish -John Lennon & Yoko Ono

Ok, one, two, three, one two, three

If you had the luck of the irish,
You’d be sorry and wish you were dead.
You should have the luck of the irish,
And you’d wish you was english instead.

A thousand years of torture and hunger,
Drove the people away from their land.
A land full of beauty and wonder
Was raped by the british brigands!
Goddamned!
Goddamned!

If you could keep voices like flowers,
There’s be shamrock all over the world.
If you could drink dreams like irish streams,
Then the world would be as high as the mountain of morn.

In the ‘pool they told us the story
How the english divided the land.
Of the pain and the death and the glory
And the poets of auld eireland.

If we could make chains with the morning dew,
The world would be like galway bay.
Let’s walk over rainbows like leprechauns,
The world would be one big blarney stone.

Why the hell are the english there anyway?
As they kill with God on their side!
Blame it all on the kids and the i.r.a.
As the bastards commit genocide!
Aye! aye!
Genocide!

Okay!

You should have the luck of the irish,
You’d be sorry and wish you were dead.
You should have the luck of the irish,
And you’d wish you was english instead.

One more time!

You should have the luck of the irish,
You’d be sorry and wish you were dead.
You should have the luck of the irish,
And you’d wish you was english instead,
Hey, yes, you’d wish you were english instead.

Face painting for St. Patricks Day is perfect for both kids and adults. A shamrock, a leprechaun, a 4-leaf clover, and similar designs are fun for everyone on this Irish holiday. Any type of green design makes for a great design on this holiday.

Getting Started

If you are learning the art of face painting, start with a few simple designs (such as shamrocks) and practice those designs before moving on to more complicated designs. For St. Patricks Day, you must use plenty of green paint – but feel free to use your imagination and add other colors too. For example, you can outline the shamrock in a different color to enhance its appearance. If you are still learning, you might want to consider using a stencil for more complicated designs – such as a leprechaun.

Involve the Adults (and the Kids)

Even if you are new to face painting, give your subjects a choice of designs or colors. Even if they simply choose between a 3-leaf clover and a 4-leaf clover, it gets your subject involved in the fun. If you are only painting your own face, be creative and use your imagination. Remember, face painting is not permanent – you can “erase” your mistakes or just laugh at them and have fun. Be sure to have plenty of green paint on hand if you are painting several faces. And, be certain to use paints that are specifically approved for face painting.

Not Just Faces

Don't limit your painting to faces. Arms, legs, and backs of hands are great places for shamrocks and other designs too. Don't take your painting too seriously. If you have fun, the adults and kids will have fun too. If you make a mistake, try to “work around” your mistake, or simply re-draw a portion of the image. Keep practicing and your skills will improve quickly.

Make your St. Patricks Day celebration special for yourself and your friends with face painting.

All over the world people have their own sets of beliefs which form an important part of our culture and just who we are. Of course, the idea of just what is this particular culture is quite a question open to interpretation yet there is little doubt that there are certain aspects of this culture which lead to other interesting avenues, etc. There are various internet sites to visit for more Interesting Information on the topic. One distinct example of how culture is reflected in practice is how people believe and make use of good luck charms. There seems to be no end to how people believe in luck and the power that certain charms can produce and fortunately, or unfortunately as the case may be, the power as believed by many may be good or evil as fantasized in many horror movies such as Dracula for example.

But moving in on examples of good fortune that is usually referenced is that of jade bead bracelets. Jade is of course a lovely semi precious stone which is generally believed to bring good luck to those who own or wear it. This belief goes only God knows how far back but is referenced numerous times in history and journals. In Asia, for example, many people have jade jewelry and/or jade displays within their homes to bring great luck there in. Again, these beliefs go back many centuries, and are part of the foundations of people's cultures. Furthermore, many lucky charms not only bring good fortune but have positive value in the opposite direction and that is in warding off evil or negative energy. So therefore having a good luck charm in the home not only brings good things to the home but it avoids the presence of bad luck.

Of course the belief in good luck charms gives one a psychological advantage also if you think about it. When one has a strong belief in something that they think will help them in some way, then chances are that belief will in fact give them an inner strength which will in fact help them psychologically. This sort of belief has been clinically tested and proven to be of value for those who believe in omens like good luck charms for example. Good luck charms may seem silly to some people but if one believes in them for what they are, perhaps a symbol of winning over losing, then they not only have beauty but a great positive value.

The Theory Behind Good Luck Charms

Amulets and talismans are in fact nothing more or less than good luck charms and after all that is exactly what millions of people in this world look for; shop for, and crave for in their lives.  What we'll be looking at here is a brief look back at the history of these good luck symbols in various cultures of the world.

These symbols are as different as the many and varied cultures of the world and differ considerably according to their times and places of origin as well as their societies and religions.  After all, an amulet may certainly represent a God or a symbol of deity such as a cross or a bull or an “eye of Horus”, or another such representation according to the culture.  Some societies even use gemstones as symbols of deity.

In parts of the Caribbean certain drawings are used as amulets, such as in certain types of Voodoo, and religions take into account the color of candles they use because of the significance of attractions or repulsions.  Additionally, speaking of attraction and repulsion, it is believed that certain perfumes and essences have that power, while a bit better known; a rabbit's foot is credited with the powers of certain magical abilities.

We all know of course from books and movies that garlic and crucifixes kept vampires away, but it is not as commonly known that the hammer of Thor still offers protection in some places in Scandinavia and Germany against thieves.  Naturally we all know about the good luck charm that is known as the four leaf clover.  (Don't confuse that with the shamrock which symbolizes the Christian Trinity)  Also interesting to note that elephants were said to attract great good luck and money IF…that's IF… one offers bank notes to them.  Hmm, interesting, huh?  And believe it or not in a small locale called Tyrol, it is believed that small bells make demons escape when they ring in the wind or when a door or window opens.

Buddhism is an interesting religion with many traditions which are somewhat unknown to most westerners.  After Buddha's death circa 485 BC, amulets bearing symbols of Buddha such as conch shells, the footprints of Buddha, and others were commonly worn.  Tradition really spread greatly after the 2nd century when the Greeks began carving actual images of the Buddha which were hungrily acquired by native Buddhists in India.

We all know that amulets and talismans, or when you really come down to it, Good Luck Charms in general, can be found literally all over the world among people from all nations and in all social statuses.
