The void is hard to put into words as it tells you so much yet so very little. I find it as a place that has no beginning and no end, the sum of all that 'is'. If you fear it, it becomes fear. Mainly fears that we hold deep inside ourselves, the fear of not knowing and inability to except and embrace change.
If you are able to let go and embrace the void it becomes a thing of beuty in a sense. An appreciation of the network of creation.
Well thats the best analogy i can make of it
