The german term Dunkelheit translates to the english word “darkness.” I gave my own magickal system this name due to a few reasons. It is constant, and it isn't. If there's something constant, it isn't Dunkelheit. This gives interesting symbolickal possibilities, if you think about it.
It's hard to impossible to describe the meaning of a magickal symbol to someone else by using words, but I'd describe it as an unlimited open blackness. You might find some analogies to Tao, which is true, but it lies more in the chaosmagickal area. As for example the assumption that every system is itself part of a larger system. The major system dictates the rules of the minor. Therefore, every system can be dominated by a point outside of it, or so to say, in it's super systems.
Breaking these limits is one of the descriptions I could give for Magick.
One of the main paradigms of Dunkelheit is that everything is based on relations between symbols. These symbolical structure interacts with our cognition. Magickal work with this belief-model is therefore mostly symbolical, as symbols are “hardwired” with what they represent.
Anyway, Dunkelheit is an infinite small point that holds unlimited possibilities, and this is only one of the paradigms I tend to use.
If something is in a certain state, Dunkelheit represents all possible and impossible states of that thing. It is everything, like darkness doesn't go away if you turn on the light, you just cannot see it anymore.
As you see this is mostly a metaphysical framework on which I base my work and my life. I won't try to describe it further, it would not help you understand anymore. But this may help to clear up where some ideas in the contents of this site origin in.
