No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

Hermes, you are right that script is a notation that we don't know how it works.

The article you have attached is very good because it shows the astrological symbols of the zodiac. I thought they had been created coinciding with the birth of the printing press, but I see that they were already in use during the Hellenistic period, at least some of them. Since these symbols were not known during the Latin Middle Ages, it makes me think that they were known throughout the 15th century when a multitude of Greek manuscripts were recovered, at the beginning of the Renaissance.

I believe that the Voynich script is prior to the knowledge of those symbols. For me it is an attempt to create a scientific language with pictographic and ideographic glyphs. That code, in my opinion, was aimed at explaining how astral influences work in plants that have medicinal properties. That there were herbs that could heal had to be seen as something from heaven.
