The Seven Deadly Sins
Pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth — fourteen centuries of moral cartography, from Evagrius' eight desert thoughts through Pope Gregory to Dante's Purgatorio. Each sin as a distorted virtue, and the most compact map of self-sabotage ever drawn.

The Lamassu — Four Dimensions of the Soul
The winged bull with a human head that guarded Assyrian palace gates — a complete map of the four dimensions of the soul encoded in stone. Bull, lion, eagle, human: earth, fire, air, wisdom. The same four creatures appear in Ezekiel's vision, Revelation and the four evangelists.
