Alchemical Symbolism in the VMS

[nickpelling]

The example of personification only the Sun and Moon appear as personifications (at least as human faces). The other planets seem not to appear in the VMS.

The other five astrological planets are there, but (as per Curse 2006 and John Grove before) obscured by the way Q9 was bound.
If you print out the Q9 foldout and instead fold it along what seems (without any real doubt) to be the correct fold, the sun and moon panels end up sitting next to each other, followed by a series of five otherwise inexplicable circular diagrams.
But alchemy? The only candidate image I could point to is the pair of implausible giant berries at the end of Q13, which is very far from the kind of systematic comparison you're hoping to find.
