As aforementioned, seven is omnipresent in many of the global cultures. We all know that we have seven deadly sins, seven heavens and seven days of creation.

The number three signifies divinity while the number four signifies humankind. Therefore, the sum of those two symbolizes the bond between humankind and God.

Moreover, a snake with seven heads correlates with the seven deadly sins. In like manner, seven Christian characters (prudence, temperance, justice, courage, faith, hope, and charity) play the role of balancing those sins.

Revelation 12:3–4 says: “Then another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems.”

Hindu culture regards Shesha, which has seven heads, as the king of all serpent gods.

In Sanskrit tradition, Shesha is the balance which stands last while everything else stops living. In Hinduism, Vishnu, one of the main gods, is often depicted as he lies down on Shesha.
