Cribs in the Voynich MS
#78
Hi Koen, the most common layout would be an outer zodiac circle and seven concentric inner circles one for each planet.

In f67r2, there are two candidate sets of labels for the seven planets. 
   

In my opinion, the most promising one is what was listed by Thomas above (marked in blue). This is compatible with a horoscope, where each planet appears in a zodiac sign. Medieval astrological charts were typically drawn as squared diagrams, but the square represented the circle of the zodiac.

The inner circle (yellow) could also be made of seven labels, though this is somehow a stretch, since the labels could also be read as being 8 and the large star at the centre has 8 points. A (messy) wind rose could maybe be more likely? Also, the seven planets appearing in a single circle inside the zodiac is an unusual arrangement.

In Thompson 31, they are arranged in a single circle, but without the zodiac:

These are other vaguely comparable images, some are later than the VMS and none is totally satisfying.
