That's basically my opinion at the moment. We don't know what it is so it's okay to call it Zodiac section, I don't know anything more convenient. 
My issue is that the main participants in the discussion don't properly distinguish between "a Zodiac" and "Zodiac signs", greatly confusing things. If Rene asks for a definition which shows why "the zodiac section in the Voynich MS would *not* be a zodiac?" then that's misleading because the section cannot be a Zodiac.


Rene: the file name said folding calendar with month images (free translation from German) but "Monatsbilderzyklus mit Tierkreiszeichen" similarly illustrates my point. A Monatsbilderzyklus with Tierkreiszeichen cannot be a Tierkreis, while you would call it so.
