I can currently illustrating and putting together the content in Adobe InDesign for a book about Rosslyn Chapel. As a brief introduction this book is inspired by the number seven which is a special number and will cover many interpretations including seven heavens, seven virtues, and seven vices.
The belief in a cosmos arranged into seven heavens likely originates from the seven visible heavenly bodies which are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the moon, and the sun.
As described by the Abrahamic religions the seven heavens are referred to as divisions of existence, each one is higher than the last, but the question is are these layers physical places or spiritual conditions.
The seven virtues are Faith which is the foundation for all of the other virtues, justice, (traditionally the virtue of justice is depicted as a blindfolded woman holding equally balanced scales), prudence, hope, temperance, fortitude, and charity. In Christian tradition, the seven heavenly virtues combine the four cardinal virtues of prudence, justice, temperance, and fortitude with the three theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity
The seven vices, also known as seven deadly sins within the teachings of Christianity and in contrast to the seven virtues are known as pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony and sloth.
