No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

One of the greatest proofs of the interdependence of all the sections of the book are the zodiacal pages. The signs of Capricorn and Aquarius are missing. That is to say, the signs of winter when most of the plants lack flower. And what we see in the Voynich are mostly flowering plants.

 To explain the lack of these zodiac signs, some argue that the pages were lost or someone tore them out at some point. I just believe that those signs were never drawn. And the proof of this is that the author doubled the signs of Aries and Taurus for two reasons: so that there would continue to be twelve signs and because it is in spring when plants bloom. Aries and Taurus, therefore, have more importance than the rest of the signs.
