What does the 17th of March mean to the Irish? 

The American Irish have an annual holiday called St. Patrick's Day, which is celebrated on March 17. They usually celebrate with a variety of traditions on this occasion. St. Patrick's Day has always been a religious holiday in modern-day Ireland. The name St. Patrick is derived from Ireland's patron saint. In that century, he was the figure who explained the Holy Trinity to non-believers in Ireland.

In Christian doctrine, it represents the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Irish believe that St. Patrick used the shamrock to recognize the Holy Trinity. That is why St. Patrick's Day has always been associated with the three-leaf clover. Furthermore, the shamrock was considered a sacred plant that announced the arrival of spring.

One leaf distinguishes a shamrock from a four-leaved clover. Four-leaf clovers are reported to be extremely rare, and anyone who finds one is considered lucky. As a result, the Irish consider the shamrock to be a lucky sign.

What’s the history of the St. Patrick’s day celebration?

Since the 9th century, people in Ireland have celebrated St. Patrick's Day on March 17. According to some sources, the first St. Patrick's Day parade in America took place in Boston. Waterford hosted the first St. Patrick's Day parade in Ireland in 1903. In 1772, Irish soldiers serving in the English military marched through New York City to commemorate the Irish patron saint. Since then, enthusiasm for St. Patrick's Day parades has grown. Every year, St. Patrick's Day parades are staged around the United States. The largest celebrations take place in New York City and Boston.

However, many of the parades have evolved into carnival-like events throughout time. In 1995, the Irish government launched a national campaign to make a positive impact on St. Patrick's Day excitement in order to stimulate tourism and promote Ireland and Irish culture to the rest of the globe. Irish immigrants expanded out over the United States in 1992 to propagate the tradition. One of the traditions is turning the river green.

They celebrate the annual event by changing the Chicago River to the leaf clover shades. This results in water contamination because the stain was contained many chemicals. In the presence, to avoid environmental harm, they only use 40 pounds of dye and the river becomes green for only a few hours. St. Patrick's Day was moved to May 2001 as a precaution against the foot-and-mouth disease outbreak.

It showed that St. Patrick's Day is not always celebrated in March. It is dependent on the situation of the country that celebrates the occasion. Since 2010, famous sites in Ireland have been illuminated in green on Saint Patrick's Day as part of Tourism Ireland's "Going Green for St Patrick's Day." The Sydney Opera House and the Sky Tower in Auckland were the first landmarks to light green for Saint Patrick's Day, and since then, over 300 monuments in fifty nations around the world have gone green. Nowadays, many people from different backgrounds celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
