The Sin You're Most Likely To Commit, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
You didn't even know you were sinning.
weheartit You’re probably familiar with the 7 Deadly Sins — which I just found out isn't in the bible; somebody just made it up. To break it down: lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy, and pride. However, there are many more sins than just those 7; in fact, in the New Testament alone there are 124 sins.
As my religious friend says, "Sin is just going against God's will, so there is the potential for lots of them."
The truth is, no matter how you good you try to be, there’s an excellent chance that you’re committing sins of some kind or breaking a commandment.
Some of these sins are so old school that they’re laughable, such as clamor (making loud noises), coveting (wanting something someone else has), and being seditious or stirring up the opposition against authority.

Some sins like divorce, taking an oath (like in court), and being angry with one’s brother (AKA expressing unkind thoughts or actions towards another) has become part of modern life. For example, boasting is considered a sin; there are people who must humblebrag regularly and in doing so commit another of the lesser sins of desiring the praise of men.
It says something in the bible that those without sin shall cast the first stone; there’s no such thing as someone being sinless as there are so many sins and so many natural actions that are considered sinful behavior.
No one sets out to see how many immoral acts or misdeeds they can do, but it seems as if no matter how hard one tries to be good and sin free, they’re going to fail. If you’re a religious person, you have certain doctrines that you try to follow; if you’re more of a spiritual person, you may have your own code that you try to live by.
As there are so many sins, it makes sense that there are some sins that are incredibly easy to commit and some that are much harder to do and have much more serious consequences. But as my religious friend says, "All sin is forgivable" which is a good thing to know.
Astrology can help identify the type of lighter sins you're most likely to commit, based on your zodiac sign.

This sin could be the secret to your success.
