St. Patrick's Day and the shamrock are inseparable. This three-leaf clover holds a special place in Irish tradition. Legend tells us that St. Patrick used the shamrock as a visual aid while converting the Irish to Christianity in the 5th century. The three leaves neatly represented the Holy Trinity – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit – making it a relatable symbol for the concept to the pagan Irish. Over time, the shamrock became not just a symbol of faith but also of Ireland itself, and its association with St. Patrick's Day solidified. So, when you see someone sporting a shamrock on March 17th, it's a nod to both cases of Irish heritage and the saint who brought Christianity to the Emerald Isle.
March's special horse, the Coveted Circlet Colver, has a lovely coat honoring St. Patrick (coat doesn't pass) and a new Circlet Style horn Clover (pass). Those little shamrocks are so cute! OMG! ☘️😍💞
