No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

Naturally, like anyone who has a theory, I believe I am right. But I know well that my script solution is difficult to accept, since there is no known precedent. For this reason, I have always thought that the solution to the Voynich mystery must begin with its imagery, which is something that with study and dedication can be solved.

I have said on many occasions that I share the ideas of Panofsky, a great historian of iconology. Only exact knowledge of the iconology of the VM can put an end to its mystery. Within the imagery of the codex, perhaps the most attractive and difficult to resolve are the multitude of female figures in pipes. I would say that the interpretation of this is the key to the mystery.

For me it is the personification of the astral influences that Panofsky spoke of. They are a representation of the zodiacal stars, as the same figures on the zodiacal pages corroborate. They are represented leaving their place and descending to Earth through these pipes. They are the ones that create those strange herbs that we see.

If one day this interpretation gains a certain consensus, it will be clearer what the script is.
