Thank you Voynichgibberish. As you know, otol is a label for a star, plant and a empty pipe. For me it's just a position in space, spatial coordinates that use astronomical symbols. It can be applied to anything because all Voynich is about the same.
As I know that admitting this is difficult, I want to go back to the imagery, something that is easier to agree on.
As I have said, the Tratado de Astrologia is the best parallel, the contemporary work that best matches the VM.
The scaly shapes that fill the corners of the almost 20 illustrated pages in the book represent the sphere of the stars, the ceiling of the cosmos. These scaly shapes are a symbolic or metaphorical decorative motif that we also see in the VM. As this is not worth discussing, it is best that you read the following threads:
Dotted scallop pattern-roof tiles and Divine cloud- tent, both threads started by Koen
Under de big tent, thread started by Marco
Those umbrella, pinecone things, started by VViews
