On plain texts and ciphers (a thought experiment)
#67
Maybe, simply, the scribe used familiar shapes to him when he wrote the string of symbols and numbers that form the text. Why 9 is (y) or a scribal abbreviation? Why is not a number? I think is a number, like 8. The numbers 8 y 9 are frequently in the endings of the Voynich and in others positions in the string of glyphs. In my opinion they mark the location of the stars, wich can be located in the eighth or the ninth sphere or in both due to the precession of equinoxes.
