- Lust (luxuria) is an intense longing mostly of sexual nature, leading to acts like adultery, but could also mean an unbridled desire for material things like money.
- Gluttony (gula) is the overconsumption of anything to the point of waste (eating too much food will leave the needy hungry).
- Greed (avaritia) is the desire and pursuit of material possessions.
- Sloth (acedia) could have initially meant a feeling of sluggishness and apathy when it comes to spiritual practice, especially for priests but now they are considered as the failure to do things one needs to do. Sloth tends to subvert the livelihood of the body and slows down the mind, becoming a source of human undoing.
- Wrath (ira) is the uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and hatred, a lot of the time with the wish to seek revenge.
- Envy (invidia) is an insatiable, resentful covetousness towards someone else’s traits or possessions. According to the most widely accepted views, only pride weighs down the soul more than envy among the capital sins.
- Pride (superbia) also known as “hubris”, is considered the worst deadly sin, and the most demonic. It is dangerously corrupt selfishness where one will put one’s own desires before the welfare of others. This is also seen as the “anti-god” state, meaning that this is the opposite of what the Abrahamic God stands for.
