Meaning of the Seven Point Star:
According to Herb Caen of the San Francisco Chronicle, the seven point star dates back to 1886 in his city and the seven points stand for the seven seals mentioned in the Book of Revelations. Which are: VIRTUE, DIVINITY, PRUDENCE, FORTITUDE, HONOR, GLORY and PRAISING GOD.
