Druids
Celtic Druids believed in three separate worlds and the ability to transmigrate between them. They believed in a world above this one which represented happiness, a world below this one which signified misery and the world in its present state. The reason behind transmigrating was meant not only to purify the soul but also as a means to punish and reward. They believed that in the present world good and evil were balanced and that they had the freedom to choose or reject either.

The Quintessential Shamrock of Ireland
The Druids were thought to revere this plant for the secret meanings hidden in its three leaves, the number three being sacred to them as they related it to the Holy Trinity. The shamrock was originally known as the 'seamrog' in the Irish language but was later been anglicized to the word Shamrock.

The Celtic Shamrock is also associated with Christianity for its sacredness and purity and symbolizes the spiritual quest of St. Patrick who desired to share the word of God with the Celtic pagans.

Shamrocks are today identified as being uniquely Irish even though many may not even be aware of the Celtic heritage.
