A small, short-lived piece of luck or an opportunity worth taking now. Clover lightens heavy cards nearby, but its good fortune does not last long. [13][14][11]

Text on the 19th-century card

Printed on a French Petit Lenormand (Geûens-Sea, Bruges, c. 1895–1901), Bibliothèque nationale de France [1]

Porte bonheur. Environnée de nuages elle est le présage de grands chagrins ; si cette carte se trouve près de celle qui désigne la personne, ses chagrins ne seront pas de longue durée, et auront une heureuse fin.

Original French

Brings luck. Surrounded by clouds it foretells great sorrow; if this card lies near the card representing the person, their sorrows will not last long and will end happily.

Translation

As a house in the Grand Tableau

Position 2 of the Grand Tableau is the House of the Clover. A card that falls here is read in the context of small luck, a lucky break, chance.[15][16]
