Dublin in Ireland is supposed to have a long association with romance, and writers such as Yeats and Shaw, drew upon the city's romanticism to write some of their lines. And it is Dublin that is the resting place of Saint Valentine, the patron saint of love, in the Carmelite Church on Whitefriar Street.

Chinese Valentine's Day is celebrated on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month in the Chinese calendar. This is the day the 7th daughter of the Emperor of Heaven was separated from her orphaned cowherd lover. The daughter was forced to move to a star named Vega and the cowherd moved to the star named Altair. They are only allowed to meet once a year on the 7th day of 7th lunar month. So, on Chinese Valentine's Day, lovers go to the temple of Matchmaker and pray for their love and happiness and their possible marriage.

Another superstition associated with the world of courtship involves the dove. Doves have been considered magical birds for many years and were often used to divine the future. Unfortunately, the heart of a dove was often an ingredient in love potions. If you saw a white dove fly overhead it was supposed to be good luck. If you dreamt of a dove it was a sign that you had a promise of happiness. And, if you saw the first dove of springtime, and made a wish, that wish would come true (much like wishing on a falling star).

The Indalo shape
(whether it be classical like Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, or
spiritual as in the Rainbow Warrior of the ancient North American Indian
Cree tribe), is a popular symbol (like the clover leaf, horseshoe, or
scarab) used to pass on good luck sentiments to loved-ones.
Our lucky charms come from Almeria in southern Spain close to where the original Indalos were discovered. This is a region of ancient culture believed to be the origin of the Neolithic civilisation that spread up into the whole of northern Europe between 4000 and 2000 BC - and the beginning of a megalithic era that was one of the great periods of Spanish and European history and included the construction of the mystical monuments of Stonehenge and Avebury in Britain. Cave paintings of Indalo-type shapes mingle with representations of suns, spirals, animals and labyrinths, each with their own mystical and esoteric meaning.
