I live in Madrid, a city at latitude 40º N and an altitude of 700 meters above sea level. I hardly see flowers at this time of year in parks and meadows. We are under the sign of Aquarius and we have passed that of Capricorn, the coldest months of the year, January and February. These signs, Capricorn and Aquarius, are not in the Voynich, but it has its internal logic that they are not. It is not because someone ripped the sheet, but because in winter we hardly see flowers and in the Voynich most of the plants we see have flowers.
If the book as I believe was made in northern Italy, Austria, Switzerland or southern Germany, at a latitude of 45º to 50º North, the wild flowers seen in winter must be very few or non-existent if you are not at sea level. This is the reason why the zodiacal section begins with Pisces and the reason why Aries and Taurus are repeated: to underline that these are the months in which the plants begin to bloom, spring in those latitudes
