TRADITIONALLY A HORSESHOE was made with seven nails because of the belief in the luckiness of the number 7. In Islam, there are seven heavens, and the Kaaba is circumambulated seven times during Hajj. In ancient Greece, the number 7 was linked to
the seven wonders of the world, and in Babylonian astronomy, seven classical planets were recognized.In Christianity, the number 7 appears frequently in the Bible, such as the seven days of creation, the seven deadly sins, and the seven virtues. Note here: seven horseshoes!
