Saint Patrick
St. Patrick was born in 385 AD somewhere along the west coast of Britain. At age 16, he was captured and sold into slavery to a sheep farmer. He escaped when he was 22 and spent the next 12 years in a monastery. In his 30s he returned to Ireland as a Christian missionary. He died at Saul in 461 AD and is buried at Downpatrick
The Shamrock
The ancient Irish Celts revered the shamrock because it has three leaves, and they considered “3″ to be a sacred number. The three leaves shaped like hearts were associated with the Triple Goddess of Celtic mythology, otherwise known as the “Three Morgans”. The Triple Goddess represented the Triple Mothers, the hearts of the ancient Celtic tribes. According to Lady Wilde, the shamrock “enlightens the brain and makes one see and know the truth“.
The Leprechaun
The name “leprechaun” has several origins. It could be from the Irish Gaelic word “leipreachan,” which means “a kind of aqueous sprite.” Or, it could be from “leath bhrogan,” which means “shoemaker.” Treasure hunters can often track down a leprechaun by the sound of his shoemaker’s hammer. If caught, he can be forced to reveal the location of his treasure, but the captor must keep their eyes on him every second. If the captor’s eyes leave the leprechaun he vanishes and all hopes of finding the treasure are lost. Legend has it that you can find the leprechaun and his pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
