Consequences of unethical actions will not be eventual at this time, they will be imminent. Best not to play with fire and continue to hide in illusions.

You may feel like you have ‘hit rock bottom’ at this time and extreme or risky behavior comes to a head with consequences to your personal life or even health. You may end up having to detoxify from chemicals or behaviors that had become addictive.

Any misuses of power will also result in karmic feedback to help you stay on course. This may take the shape of loss of certain relationships where boundaries were overstepped or power was being used to manipulate or control others, or where you were being manipulated or controlled by others.
