This week we have a question from Crystal regarding her front door and Halloween trick or treaters.



Dear Veronica,


I’m curious, with Halloween arriving soon, my front door is in a negative sector. How do I enjoy the little trick or treaters with out having this area activated over and over on Halloween night? Thanks in advance for your help!


~ Crystal


Hi Crystal,


Halloween is the third biggest celebration in the US after Christmas and the New Year. Everyone loves to dress up and celebrate. The excitement of the children is one of the many positives of this holiday. It seems everyone is participating in making their home festive for this beloved holiday, too. It is now a billion dollar retail industry.


Regarding your question, it depends on what kind of negative sector you have. Before we get to specifics, let's explain the negative areas for 2026 for those who aren't aware.


NEGATIVE SECTORS in 2026


There are many kinds of negative sectors. These include Offending the Grand Duke, The Year Breaker, 3 Killings of Calamity, and Robbery & Annual Sha. They also include Violence, Arguments and Disaster areas for the year and month. The image below shows the energies for 2026.


In general, the strength of the negative areas depends upon the timing ( Year, Month energies) and how you use the area.


We also take into consideration your surrounding environment. For example, a tree blocking your front door, too much traffic, the way the street curves, landscaping work done on the street or by your neighbors... they can all trigger energy manifesting it in your life.


Going deeper, negative areas can affect different members of the family, depending on the

 sector and location of your front door. In general, if your door is in a negative area, it is best to avoid too much activity that can cause noise and vibration.

October energies begin on October 8, which is the start of the solar month of the Earth Dog. September energies are doubled this year, making an already negative area worse.


You can wait to decorate or set up your area after the new month or choose to do it gently using one of our positive days. Choose one from our weekly Energy Potential Highlights, published every Sunday on our social media channels.



DECORATING YOUR FRONT DOOR & PORCH AREA


A constant opening and closing of doors, slamming, or creating movement in the area can trigger negative energies. Depending on the nature of the area, negative or unexpected events can happen as a result, dampening the few hours of celebration


If your front door is in a negative area, keep the area quiet. Avoid activities that trigger the worst energies: South, Soutwest, West, and North. Things to avoid include -

  1. Loud noises

  2. Clapping trinkets

  3. Heavy music

  4. Loud thumps

  5. Note that a loud barking dog can also activate the area.


If you like to have a firepit in your driveway when handing out your candy, please skip this year if you're in the negative areas.



Here is a fun illustrated guide according to your front door. If you entertain in the garage, hand out candy in your driveway with a fire pit, or set up a tent outside, look up what sector that is in your home too.
