The name of a three-leaf clover is trefoil. (Those delicious, buttery Girl Scout cookies were named after the shape of a three-leaf clover!) The trefoil knot is the Celtic symbol of unity and unbroken bonds. The Christian Trefoil Knot symbolizes the Holy Trinity: The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit.

In ancient times, 3 BC, Celtic beliefs were Ireland’s beliefs. Druids were the teachers, priests and judges in the Celtic system. Dagda was one of many Celtic gods and he was considered a good god. Back then, the word Celtic was pronounced with a soft sound like “sell-tick.” Today, Celtic is pronounced with a hard sound like “kell-tick.”

A shillelagh is an Irish walking stick used for walking and fighting. It is pronounced “shil-AY-lee”.
