Voice of wisdom making nothing clear, perhaps? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oracle

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'voice of wisdom' is the definition.
'oracle' can be an answer for 'wisdom' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'voice of' bit.

'nothing clear perhaps?' is the wordplay.
'nothing' becomes 'O' (looks like zero - 0).
'perhaps?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'perhaps' mean this).
'clear' is an anagram of 'racle'.
'o'+'racle'='ORACLE'

'making' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oracle that I've seen before include "Augury" , "Infallible indication" , "Diviner of the future" , "Source of prophecies" , "One successfully worked" .)
