Spiritual Consequences of Cheating and Adultery
The spiritual consequences of adultery are not as simple as you think. If you commit a wrongdoing, you will have to pay it back, if not in this life then in the next. The law of the universe indicates you are held accountable for your own actions, because there are always karmic consequences for any action you take. If you don’t want to lose, you will be forced to lose.
A lot of people have suffered the same fate according to what they did to others. What goes around comes around. When you commit adultery, you intentionally cause harm and suffering to your spouse, doesn’t matter what the reason is, as you break the vow of your marriage.
People who committed adultery in the past were stoned to death. You have caused deep hurt to someone who trusted you the most. Over time, you may find it difficult to recognize your own reflection in the mirror.
According to Tech Report, the number of women who have committed adultery has increased by 40% since 1990, and infidelity caused 57% of divorces to happen. The workplace is where 60% of emotional affairs start.
General Social Survey also indicates that 44% of men cheated with someone in the work environment from 2010 to 2016, making the workplace a common ground for infidelity.
The energy of cheating and adultery are associated with the planet Mercury in astrology, whose symbol is the caduceus, the symbol of the medical corps.
If you committed this act, you might have to endure unexplainable health problems, incurable diseases, and sexual issues such as premature ejaculation, breast cancer, AIDS, and other sexual dysfunctions.
Mercury also rules the mind, so your mind may not be at peace and constantly feel worried, fearful, and paranoid. You may find that your work, business, and trade do not go as well as usual, because Mercury rules over these areas in astrology.
Children are often the unseen victims of adultery. The selfish actions of parents can cause deep emotional trauma in children that lasts well into adulthood.
Your children may have to face insecurity, lack of trust, problems with commitment, and tendencies toward destructive behavior if you commit adultery. The infidelity of parents can surely affect the children of future generations, because they likely repeat what they see in their parents.
Committing adultery also means compromising one’s moral values, principles, and integrity. To pursue an affair, you have to become deceitful and dishonest. Hiding things from your spouse, covering your tracks, and living a double life may soon become second nature. The shame and lack of self-respect can be overwhelming.
Do you truly feel happy when you commit adultery? Or are you actually filled with paranoia, insecurity, and feeling of emptiness? You have to discern true fulfillment and meaningless emptiness in this sense.
Your soul will be contaminated, your marriage(s) will be ruined, your parents won’t see your face, your sex life won’t be satisfied, your spouse won’t forgive you, and your children will suffer.
The law of karma does not miss anyone, after all.
