If we think of an element that is associated with luck, one of those that quickly comes to mind is the clover, and more specifically the four-leaf clover. It is said that only one in ten thousand clovers have four leaves, hence the legend of finding them in augury of good luck. Clovers, which are a family of plants whose scientific name is Trifolium, have as a general rule, hence their scientific name, which means three leaves in Latin.
Each of the leaves of the clover symbolizes an attribute, the first of the leaves is related to hope, the second to faith, the third to love and the fourth … to luck. As we can see, they are all very kind and very "cuquis" attributes, and this is because around the world the clover embodies good feelings and good omens. Clovers are closely related to Celtic culturesIn fact, it is one of the symbols of Ireland.
Clover tattoos are usually small tattoos, the most commonly used areas are the wrists, neck, biceps, near the navel or the sole of the foot. As I said before it is a very harmless tattoo, and if you think that by wearing tattoos your professional career can be compromised, it surely does not happen with a tattoo of a clover, since it does not have that negativity charge that a typical tattoo can have gangster.
There are tattoos of clovers with infinity of designs, obviously they all have a clover shape, how could it be otherwise, but there are small ones: on the wrists, on the neck, on the ankles; there are bigger ones: in the back, the chest, the leg; monochromatic unfilled, polychromatic, totally green; sets of small clovers winding an area of the body, accompanied by other Celtic elements such as elves, mushrooms or elves, with letters inside or forming calligrams and dozens of different designs.
It is true that clovers are elements closely linked to Celtic cultures but it is also very common to find clovers tattooed in the style of tribal tattoos, or accompanying Maori symbols and other elements of oriental cultures. It is one of the advantages of being an element, as a rule, benign, that can be interrelated with other cultures and other symbols without generating great controversy.
Something must be clear, the vast majority of designs of clovers that you will find in tattoo studios are four-leaf clovers, that's why, when someone decides to get a tattoo they want their tattoo to be striking, original, different And, evidently, a three-leaf clover is very common, in fact 9,999 out of 10,000 clovers have three leaves.
You know, if you are a descendant or have ties to Celtic cultures, it is already taking time to get your clover tattoo and if you are not, you are also taking a tattoo of a clover, and if it is four leaves, much better .
