No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

There is an iconographic similarity, not narrative. In the BNF Arsenal 5061 a Neoplatonic theory is exposed with the Dame Necessity or the soul of the world and the idea of time is exposed with the three Fates or Moirai. It has nothing to do with the content of the Voynich. But there is an iconographic coincidence with the spindle to show the time.

The fact that there is an interval of one hundred years between the two images is irrelevant for these purposes. In the VM it is the stars of the zodiac, personified in female figures, that do the work of spinning time. The metaphor is clear. The stars turn forever.

Honestly, I think it's not that difficult to understand this.
