Pumpkins, with their vibrant orange color and unique shape, are often associated with the fall season and Halloween. However, these gourd-like fruits possess magical attributes that go beyond their traditional uses. One of the most commonly known magical properties of pumpkins is their association with protection. In many cultures, placing a carved pumpkin outside one's home is believed to ward off evil spirits and protect the household. The flickering light from a candle placed inside the pumpkin is said to further enhance this protective quality, as it symbolizes the presence of positive energy. Another magical attribute of pumpkins is their connection to fertility and abundance.

However, Gojo said that soon Yuji will gain sukunas powers and they will be engraved into his body, so I think it s highly likely with how Yuji can grasp concepts that take most sorcerers a long time to learn in a short period that Itadori will be able to copy Sukunas powers and use them, for example, he will be able to most likely heal Inumaki, and the others with a reversed technique since Sukuna was able to do it. Itadoriyuji You re probably right, but if you think about it, the reversed cursed technique is still labeled as a technique so that cements the fact that Yuji will most likely inherit it.
Another magical attribute of pumpkins is their connection to fertility and abundance. In ancient times, pumpkins were often used in fertility rituals and spells to promote conception and ensure a bountiful harvest. It was believed that the round shape and numerous seeds of the pumpkin symbolized fertility and the potential for new growth.
Theory: RCT(Reverse Cursed Technique) can destroy cursed energy/techniques.
I'm asking this because while I was rewatching JJK, especially the Goodwill Arc, Todo said something that struck me as somewhat odd. When he and Yuji were fighting Hanami, after Hanami heals his arm because of Yuji's Black Flash, Todo says that "A cursed spirit's body is made up of cursed energy. Unlike us, they don't need any advanced reversed cursed technique to heal."
"A cursed spirit's body is made up of cursed energy." (Todo, Aoi, JJK Anime S1E19)
The reason this struck me as weird is that while I was rereading a few chapters, especially the Sendai Colony Arc, I came across the Yuta vs Kurourushi fight. To beat him, Yuta, for lack of a better word, kissed Kurourushi and channeled RCT through his mouth (What would Rika think, Yuta?).

This also reminded me of Sukuna's fight against Mahoraga, the one that wiped out Shibuya. Mahoraga has a weapon called the Sword Of Extermination, a cursed tool that utilizes and channels positive energy. Sukuna himself says that if Megumi had used Mahoraga in that situation(Cursed Womb Arc), he may have died, and he mentions that if he were a cursed spirit, he would have died.
Sukuna talking about the Sword Of Extermination (JJK Manga, Ch. 118) Sukuna said that Mahoraga may have beaten him at the Juvenile Detention Ward. (JJK Manga, Ch. 118)
By definition, reversed cursed technique "processes negative energy into positive energy." So we can conclude, effectively, that reversed cursed technique uses positive energy instead of negative energy. And it also says that cursed spirits are "vulnerable to reverse cursed energy as the positive energy can compromise the integrity of their cursed energy based bodies." (Ahem, ahem Kurourushi). So, my theory is that negative energy (CT) and positive energy (RCT) have a destructive relationship, similar to matter and antimatter where they destroy each other.
In the current canon, there are only three things/people that can disrupt or destroy cursed techniques: The Inverted Spear of Heaven (Used by Toji Fushiguro), the Black Rope (Used by Miguel), and Hana Kurusu, who supposedly has a technique that extinguishes cursed techniques.

Since positive energy destroys cursed energy, it can also stand to reason that positive energy can disrupt cursed techniques. My theory is that the three nullifiers listed above use or used positive energy/reversed curse technique to nullify cursed energy/techniques. I'm gonna go take a nap now. Thank you for reading and have a good day, or whatever upcoming time period you may have.
TL;DR: Positive energy/RCT can be used to disrupt CT and the nullifiers(ISpH, BR & HK) use RCT/positive energy to nullify techniques & OP is extremely tired.😴
