Four leaf clover 🍀
He is considered in western civilization as a good luck charm.
Indeed, each leaf has a symbol:
The first represents hope;
the second, Faith; the third one is love ;
Fourth time a charm.
According to legend, Eve, the first woman in Genesis (a book of the Old Testament), would have picked and carried a four-leaf clover into the Garden of Eden.
The Celtic Druids considered the four-leaf clover a charm that warded off evil spirits.
This idea perpetuated in time, in 1620, Sir John Melton, English writer and politician, wrote, "If a man walking in the meadow finds, by the greatest chance, a four-leaf clover, he will, sometime later, receive good things."
According to a Christian tradition, each leaf of the clover, worn by Eve driven out of Eden and shaped reminiscent of the Cross, represents one of theological virtues. The first leaf is for hope, the second is for faith and the third is for charity; so the fourth leaf would be for luck.
