Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Written by

Orig­i­nally, the color asso­ci­ated with Saint Patrick was blue.

Over the years the color green and its asso­ci­a­tion with St. Patrick’s Day grew. Green rib­bons and sham­rocks were worn in cel­e­bra­tion of St. Patrick’s Day as early as the 17th century.

Saint Patrick is said to have used the sham­rock, a three-​​leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish, and the wearing and dis­play of sham­rocks and shamrock-​​inspired designs have become a ubiq­ui­tous fea­ture of the day.  The phrase “the wearing of the green”, meaning to wear a sham­rock on one’s clothing, derives from a song of the same name.
