What's good luck on Saint Patrick's Day?
Finding a four-leaf clover
(that's double the good luck it usually is).
Wearing green.
(School children have started a little tradition of their own -- they pinch classmates who don't wear green on this holiday).
Kissing the blarney stone
Springtime is the land awakening. The March winds are the morning yawn.

Green is associated with Saint Patrick's Day because it is the color of spring, Ireland, and the shamrock. Leprechauns are also associated with this holiday, although I'm not sure why. Leprechauns of legend are actually mean little creatures, with the exception of the Lucky Charms guy. They were probably added later on because capitalists needed something cute to put on greeting cards.
