I woke up at 7:07 today, dreaming of Grand Mother and her golden medallion. Today, the seventh day of the seventh month of the seventh year of the current millennium is believed to be an auspicious day. Historically, the number seven carries deep spiritual significance, representing holiness, perfection and completion. A week has seven days. Many lovers are being married today...Seven Brides for Seven Brothers?
In grade school literature (perhaps in 7th grade) I learned about the Seven Deadly Sins, also known as the Seven Cardinal Sins. These go hand-in-hand with the Seven Virtues:
SUPERBIA-pride versus HUMILITY
INVIDIA-envy versus KINDNESS
IRA-wrath versus FORGIVENESS
ACEDIA-sloth versus DILIGENCE
AVARITIA-greed versus CHARITY
GULA-gluttony versus TEMPERANCE
LUXURIA-lust versus CHASTITY
