In Irish tradition, a three leaf clover, a Shamrock supposedly represents the Holy Trinity - The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. If a four leaf clover is found, then the fourth leaf is considered to bring God's Grace.

What happens if you find a four leaf clover?

Because most clover have only three leaves not four, so it takes a bit of luck to find a four leaf bit of clover in a field. The Irish have a tradition that says if someone finds one by accident they will have good luck. Only 1 in 10,000 have 4 leaves. They stand for: Faith, Hope, Love, and Luck. When Eve left the Garden of Eden, some people say she was holding a four-leaf clover. The green hills of Ireland have more four-leaf clovers than anywhere else, or so the Irish say. From that comes the saying, "luck of the Irish." St. Patrick used a shamrock (one that has three leaves) to represent the holy trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). Some Christians see the four-leaf clover as a resemblance to the cross and some also say that the fourth leaf is the grace of God. The Irish believe that finding a four-leaf clover is LUCKY but finding one with 5 or more is UNLUCKY. Druids believed that when they carried a shamrock that they could see evil spirits coming so they could get away before they came and they thought that four-leaf clovers guarded against bad luck and offered magical protection.
