It's a twisted way of looking at how Nick lost his Grimm (through sex) and Juliette became a hexenbiest (through sex). It would have been better if they stuck to the Contaminatio Ritualis way of becoming a hexenbiest but then they couldn't have Juliette going mental on Nick and burning her bridges.

In conclusion, the short answer to this thread, “What changed Juliette into a Hexenbiest”?
Answer: SEX.
Okay, so Nick wouldn’t drink anything Adalind offered. If the spell only required the fluid/potion to be inside Nick, Adalind could have turned into Juliette and offered Nick a drink. It really seems to come down to G & K wanting to incorporate sex scenes, specifically involving Adalind and Juliette, and they used sex-requiring spells as rationale.
The love sick spell required Adalind to have sex with Hank. The de-Grimming spell required Adalind to have sex with Nick while looking like Juliette. The re-Grimming spell required Juliette to have sex with Nick while looking like Adalind. Nick and Monroe even shared a little locker-room talk about Nick having sex with both women as each other. Eve becoming Renard didn’t require sex but led to sex with Rachael. Eve’s inability to complete the translation doesn’t negate that sex occurred.
So, does anyone believe G & K were implying that sex had a deeper meaning, perhaps mystical, in the Grimm/Wesen mythology? Or were they simply creating their male fantasies?
The only out I can give G & K is that because Claire Coffee was pregnant they needed the spell to result in Adalind’s pregnancy. But for me, the reversal spell doesn’t establish the how & why Juliette became a Hexenbiest.
