I totally agree with the idea that colour is meaningful. It is very important to interpret well colours in the Voynich to understand the whole message of the manuscript.
For example in the biological section (for me it is astrological), we see usually the blue colour up and the green one down. It is clear that the green colour is water. And the blue one? I think is water too, but the water of the sky where the fixed stars are, according with the Genesis. In the time of the Voynich this blue water was in the Crystalline Heaven, the ninth sphere. Thereby, we see the personified stars coming down to the Earth and transform the blue water in green water for the herbs.
Another example: In the Recipes section (for me it is also astronomical) we see that red and yellow stars altenate. I think it is not a scribe's fancy, but a hint that they are stars in different moments: red stars at daytime and yellow ones at nigth. It could be another thing, but I believe colours express a polarity and the string of glyphs of each star correspond with that polarity, the travel of the stars around the celestial sphere.
