On the You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. Rosette foldout page there are the 9 large circles and in the far lower left there is a smaller circle with three tiny circles connected by two lines. Could these three tiny circles connected by two lines be a representation of the Holy Trinity?
Could this be seen as the opposite of the "T and O map" in the far upper right? Spiritual world and physical world?

Dieu et mon droit
You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
"Dieu et mon droit, which means 'God and my right',[1][2] is the motto of the monarch of the United Kingdom.[2] It appears on a scroll beneath the shield of the version of the coat of arms of the United Kingdom."
People in the past believed that kings were kings because it was the will of God and that the nobles were nobles and commoners were commoners because that was the will of God.
Christianity was for everyone; royalty, nobility, and commoners. When all these people got to Heaven, were they really expected to mingle together as equals? Could the Rosettes foldout page be talking about what happens to different classes of people when they get to heaven?
The circle in the upper right corner has castles. Also in that corner is what some think looks like a "T and O map".

Could this circle with the castles represent the nobles or rulers of the Earthly world?

This one covers matters that concern some threads and on-going discussions across the forum. How Christian is the Voynich ms.? It's an open question. I'm happy to hear alternative views.

| Ensoulment according to the Catholic Church in the 14th and 15th centuries |

I still think the pages of Quire 13 from You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. to You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. of the Voynich Manuscript are about Ensoulment. I think the images of stars in the illustrations represent human souls and the process of Ensoulment.
Can someone out there who is an expert in the history of the 14th and 15th centuries answer this question; What were the teachings of the Catholic Church in the 14th and 15th centuries on the topic of Ensoulment?

| f67r2 and potential link to length of months |

Hi,
Did anyone ever notice that f67r2 has alternating colors that happen to deviate with two pairs of successive colors? This reminds me of how lunar calendars tend to have alternating months of 29 and 30 days, until sometimes there are successive 29 then successive 30 day months. It seems to me that f67r2 suggests this idea with the yellow and red colored moons.
What do you guys think?

Has anyone raised the opinion that the manuscript might be a collection of separate manuscripts that were written at different times, and were then bound into one so as to keep them all together? I have some ideas on this but I am not sure whether it has been debated before.

| Codes by the Bishop of Brescia |

This might be of interest to those looking for ciphers and codes in the relevant period and might add to what we know of the literary culture.
I have not yet accessed this recent research. As we know, the Vaticanus graecus 1291 (Ptolemy's Canones), noted for a possible link to the Voynich, was kept by the bishops of Brescia. New documents reveal codes by Francesco Marerio, bishop during the relevant window.
The translation of the abstract is poor, but "open to humanistic innovations also in the graphic field" is an enticing statement worth pursuing, in the context. It suggests a culture of experimentalism.
Has anyone accessed this work or know of Bishop Marerio's interests in "codes" and "humanistic innovations also in the graphic field" or shed any light on Marerio?
Il vescovo di Brescia Francesco Marerio e i suoi codici
The bishop of Brescia Francesco Marerio and his codes
Carla Maria Monti
Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] The article reconstructs the biography of Francesco Marerio, and in particular the events linked to his long Brescia bishopric, with the help of new archival documentation and the unpublished testimony of a literary work, the Itinerarium by Bartolomeo Baiguera. The Appendix provides the edition of the 96 final verses of the long poem dedicated to the prelate. The three codes identified so far belonging to Marerio, one of which [he] autographs, are also studied, which provide significant clues about his culture, open to humanistic innovations also in the graphic field.
