I have never heard of this, there are 7 days of creation, 7 Sacraments(in RC church) 7 Pillars of wisdom, etc. Grace is the next numeral. It is possible there may be some confusion with the Lemniscate or Infinity sight which is a figure-8 in the horizontal plane and is familiar to all photographers as the infinity sign, sometimes called the (Bug)-do not confuse with telegraph key called (Bug)-Vibroplex certainly the concept of Infinity does have spiritual dimensions-=might be a tie-in with the Infinity sign or Lemniscate-found this name in a book on(tarot cards) of all things.

Roman Catholic Answer: One way of looking at a "central" sacrament would be The Most Holy Eucharist (the Mass and Holy Communion). All the other sacraments are means of grace. They are real actions which signify and actually impart the grace which they signify. The Eucharist is different, as It is actually the Body and Body, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus, Himself. It is His Reality.Every other sacrament leads up to the Eucharist or flows from It, but they are allowed aimed at It.

What is a sacramental?

AnswerA sacrament is an outward sign of inward grace in that it bears its image and is its cause. It is a sacred and mysterious sign or ceremony, ordained by Christ, by which grace is conveyed to our souls. In every sacrament three things are necessary: the outward sign, the inward grace, Divine institution. Sacraments do not naturally signify grace; they do so because they have been chosen by God to signify mysterious effects. Against all innovators, the Council of Trent declared: "If anyone say that the sacraments of the New Law do not contain the grace which they signify, or that they do not confer grace on those who place no obstacle to the same, let him be anathema" (Sess. viii, can.vi). "If anyone say that grace is not conferred by the sacraments ex opere operato but that faith in God's promises is alone sufficient for obtaining grace, let him be anathema" A sacrament is a spiritual covenant between God and man. We take upon ourselves the name of the Lord, to remember his blood which was shed for us and his body which was broken for us. We remember the atonement that he made for us. A sacrament is an outward sign of inward grace in that it bears its image and is its cause. In every sacrament three things are necessary: the outward sign, the inward grace, Divine institution.

The Sacraments are seven in number: Baptism, Confirmation, Penance, Holy Eucharist, Holy Orders, Matrimony, Anointing of the Sick.a formal religious act conferring a specific grace upon those who receive it.
