Were missing Capricorn and Aquarius? Really? This is just a supposition, a guess. Maybe they were never drawn
Why the Zodiac starts with Pisces instead of Aries, something very odd? And why Aries and Taurus are repeated? Maybe the author of the pictures thought that the Zodiac would not be complete without twelve signs
I think that the unusual Zodiac makes sense with the message of the whole work. In chilly winter (Capricorn and Aquarius) don't grow herbs. All the Voynich is about the influence of the stars in plants. They make them germinate and give them its virtues. That don't occur in winter. Likely, Capricorn and Aquarius never were drawn
