No text, but a visual code

[Antonio García Jiménez]

There's no text, nothing to read. If the script has never been deciphered, it's for this simple reason. There's no language, just successions of groups of astronomical symbols.

I've tried to explain that this codex belongs to an area of medieval culture where astrology was a predominant science. It wasn't marginal at all; even the Church hierarchy believed in it. In the mindset of the Voynich authors, each herb we see receives its medicinal or magical virtues under a certain astronomical configuration.
