Alchemical Symbolism in the VMS

[Barbrey]

There is alchemy in Voynich Science Manuscript. 
The author, being a healer, needed medications. He used not only the plants as it is in the first part, but also created some. And he created some, according his knowledge and training.
Actually I cannot understand the blog of being deprived of  Alchemy section. 
The ancient alchemy is the today's pharmacy, chemistry, astrology, paintings colours, mining, cooking, metallurgy  etc. 
In other words: I respect Alchemy and do not denigrate it, as being ironized by our generation and its scientists.
Also there are proofs from the text too.
 If one looks at 67 v1,2, what is your impression? 
Complete process of chemistry, isn't it? There are other examples too as above mentioned.

I agree Bess. I’d go so far as to say that entire balneological section is about alchemy/medicine with a focus on transformation (the Ovid stories), the quintessence or water of life, and the various chemical processes and equipment needed in distillation.

Which article are you referring to?

Let us first look at the Antichrist, Diabolic or Luciferic hermaphrodite, and we will here use the illuminated image from possibly the earliest version that in Nürnberg, Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Hs. 80061, dated to 1420 by the scholar Barbara Obrist, and on the right that of the beautifully illuminated manuscript in Munich which is some fifty years later. The figure is entitled 'Contra justiciam' (against justice).

Cutest little monster ever to replace the dragon (not green, with two heads and lion's legs) (1517)

So identifying the green pool that is not shaped like a dragon with a dragon/monster that is not generally green is a bit risky.
