Get your green garb ready – St. Patrick’s Day is next week! While green has been this holiday’s staple color for years, did you know that blue was originally associated with St. Patrick’s Day? The transition from blue to green happened in the 17^th century. Because green is a color in the Irish flag and has been used in flags for Irish revolutionary groups for some time, plus Ireland is known for its green landscape (thus the moniker “Emerald Isle”), it made sense that green would become the color to represent this holiday.

But why do we pinch those who do not wear green on St. Patrick’s Day? You’ve got American tradition to thank for that one. It is believed that wearing green made you invisible to leprechauns, who would pinch anyone they could see. Those not wearing green were visible to leprechauns, thus susceptible to a pinch. People continue to pinch those not wearing green as a reminder.
