I’m sorry it took me so long to answer you, hun!
See, that’s the thing! Void magick is very interesting, because it’s the study of the truest form and nature of the universe and all of its concepts. It’s one of those crafts that requires a complete sense of openness - otherwise you limit yourself and your power.
These are a couple texts I’ve found that try to explain it:
“Void magic is the magic of everything and nothing. It is the magic that recognizes that concepts like earth, fire, air and water are just that--concepts. Void magic takes a special kind of mentality to master. While lower level void "spells" are easy to learn, the more advanced ones are not, because they require a sort of understanding that defies conventional thought.
Put simply, void magic is the magic of reality in it's truest form, detached from the mind and it's filters. Thus, the more attached a person is to their own concepts and understanding of reality, the less mastery of void magic they can obtain. This is almost the inverse of other magic types; other magics, taking cues as they do from the person's mind, are strengthened when the person has a clear and unquestionable conception of what they are doing (even if it is merely a psychological construct). Conversely, the more a person is able to shed their own beliefs and preconceptions, the more power they will obtain through the use of void magic.
Of course, void magic can be "taught," and this has the paradoxical effect of making the person believe that they must not believe anything, but so long as a person is open-minded enough to reach out and grasp the true universe, it does not truly matter what they think--and that is the true key. It is not what you think, but what you don't think, that limits your power as a void mage. If your beliefs limit you, you are hindered. If your beliefs open you up, you are empowered.”
@stardust-of-light is a void witch that I follow, and actually the one that introduced me to this interest. If you have more questions, that would be the witch to ask!
