The question is, can you improve your luck? Some people think so, others don't. Many cultures in history have had symbols or objects to increase your luck, a lot of those symbols have been adopted today. We have some used in our jewelry.
I remember as a kid searching at school recess for a four leaf clover, I don't think I ever found one. The tradition of a four leaf clover as a good luck charm comes from Ireland and the four leaves symbolize faith, hope, love, and luck.
Horseshoes are sometimes hung over doors or entryways to bring good fortune to those who enter, but only horseshoes that are right side up are meant to bring good luck, upside down might bring you bad luck.
Both wishbones and shooting stars are considered lucky because they are supposed to grant you your wishes.
I didn't know this but in Norse folklore the acorn and it's bearer the oak tree is supposed to bring luck and protection. Acorns were work to protect the wearer and a lone acorn in the window was supposed to keep lightning away.
Good luck to you all!
