Glyph ‘v’ — ? — Feminine Sunthema (Matrix / Rosa) Now defined
Glyph ‘v’ is a feminine sunthema — a symbolic harmonic token — representing the Neoplatonic matrix or alchemical rosa. Unique to f57v, it resonates alone in inner rings (R4.1, R3.1, R2.1) alongside cosmic glyphs (‘l’, ‘o’, ‘x’, ‘a’), preparing the field. In R1.1, it unites with Vital Fluid (‘s’) in the Rubedo phase ( v s - a r , ~day 10–11), culminating in an implied Elixir (‘m’). The ring cycle (11→9→23→33 days) confirms an inner-to-outer harmonic emanation. ‘v’ is folio-specific, non-harmonic, non-procedural, and sexually symbolic. This now confirms the radials work from the inner rings to the outer rings.

There is a very similar shape on folio f3r. How would you interpret it?

[attachment=11051]

It is very similar indeed, seems to not be included in the EVA, could indeed be a 'v'. Thanks for pointing it out — I’ve now tested it on f3r, and it can absolutely function within the harmonic structure of that folio. It aligns with the role of the feminine sunthema (‘v’ ?) as seen in f57v, specifically acting as a resonant gate. No fluid union here, but the symbolic logic holds.

I’ve added the full breakdowns here if you’re curious:

Have you seen this glyph or any similar forms on other folios? If it’s repeated, especially near floral or energetic centers, it could help to define the pages further with it's inclusion. Would be great to track recurrence patterns.  I have to check all the EVA at some point as I've noticed a few errors here and there.

Major Decode Update – Glyph ‘c’ Reclassified
After extensive testing across the manuscript — including glyph matrix constraints, positional rules, and day-count patterning — I have formally reclassified glyph ‘c’. It was previously interpreted as representing a cycle, but this interpretation no longer holds against the full structural data.
‘c’ now represents a Cosmic Container — a World Soul chamber.
In the Neoplatonic framework, this refers to the Anima Mundi — the universal soul that connects celestial harmony to the material world. Within the decode, ‘c’ operates as a ritual vessel: conceptually on most folios (surrounding plants or energy fields), and physically on others (where human subjects appear inside tubs or enclosed spaces). It contains the Subject, Vital Fluid, and harmonic tones during each ritual phase.
Functionally, the glyph shows tightly controlled behavior:

• It appears frequently near the Subject (‘h’), often before it
  
• It never follows harmonic tone glyphs
  
• It does not end blocks
  

This last point was tested exhaustively: ‘c’ appears to end a block twice in the EVA transcription, but upon rechecking the manuscript:

• One instance is clearly an EVA transcription error
  
• The other is almost certainly a spacing mistake, where ‘c’ begins the next block
  

All decode logic, pairings, and harmonic field behavior confirm this reclassification.
The term ‘vessel’ will be used in the decode system moving forward, though it encapsulates both the symbolic World Soul and its physical chamber forms.

I don't think I've seen more of these.

What do you think about this strange glyph from You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. below, one that looks like letter "p"? To me it looks completely out of place.

[attachment=11060]

I think there are many anomalies in the text, I found two today while looking at the 2 blocks that end with c, both were EVA errors, I'm sure there will be more as I go along

It's a ‘p’. A clever person would now look for a similar word that starts with a VM glyph to find out which VM symbol could be a ‘p’.
I actually wanted to write about this somewhere else, but here will do just fine.

A clever mind would also evaluate the standalone ‘o’. It's a definite article.

This does look like a very ordinary p to me, but not the kind that appears in the marginalia. Funnily, if thinking which EVA glyph would fit between o and ch, EVA P is the first to come to mind, with EVA L the second. The closest textual match is probably opcheeky on f80r.

The glyphs fitting in between EVA /o/ and /ch/ that would come first to my mind would be /k/ and /t/, rather than /p/ since it isn't the top row or /l/ since this is a "Scribe 1" Herbal A folio, and /olch/ is a rarer combination in Scribe 1.

But there is a descender going down into the next line. It kind of looks as if the scribe did the descender for a q then changed their mind and wrote an o over it. There's also a sizeable gap between the o and the weird glyph, which could mean they belong to separate words...or it could be consistent with leaving space for the left "loop" of the q.  I wonder if it is relevant that there is a rare initial oq word below it. 

But then again, if the word is supposed to be initial och, that's a rare combination itself.  The few instances it has tend to be in Scribe 1 Herbal A at Line Start, not in the midline.

I think this deserves splitting off from the thread.

All decode papers are fully updated — including folio summaries, harmonic tables, and glyph definitions. PDF version is live. Google Drive access is open again.
The update includes the reclassification of glyph c as the World Soul / ritual vessel, closing a major symbolic gap. All timing, harmonic structure, and transformation logic remains intact. It just changed up.....again, freaks me out when this happens but it never breaks, it just waits for me to catch up. :-)
