Voynich Decoded

[rikforto]

Firstly thank you for your comment and asking about my work, the full methodology is in my progression of papers. 
The plant identification process is straightforward once you understand the manuscript structure. When I identified the red and blue pages were a visual clue, the real plant pages became clear. The actual botanical illustrations are simple and recognisable - they had to be for practical use.

Working through the folios in order: lemon (distinctive yellow/green leaves, single fruit), caper (round leaves, white flower), ivy, herb paris. These are common Mediterranean plants that any Renaissance practitioner would recognise immediately.
The caper identification is supported by Lucrezia Tornabuoni's letters, where she specifically mentions capers at Bagno al Morbo - the geothermal treatment site I've connected to this manuscript. BTW this is the geothermal capital of the world (as per the Volterra website), the 9 radial is a map of this, Bagno al Morbo is the central circle.

No flowers on this page because it's not about the reproductive area. The Renaissance understanding of male fertility linked chest health to reproductive function. Excess phlegm in the chest was believed to cool the body and reduce vital heat - the heat necessary for generating semen. Clear the chest, restore proper heat balance, improve fertility.

Every page follows the same pattern, up to f57 anyway.

First, I check the colour. No red/blue = real plant. Red = male page. Blue = female page (female pages also have red to show the blood humor being dealt with).

Then I transcribe the glyphs line by line from the manuscript onto a spreadsheet. I split the glyphs into cell blocks to count the days using the timing markers: o (sunrise), d (noon), n (sunset).

I copy that to another sheet, split each block vertically, and translate using my glyph key. All that information goes into the documentation. The process is numbered in the folders - 1 to 5 for real plants, 1 to 6 for fake plants to include full treatment schedules.

Test it yourself: turn the page. The diagrams are of a human torso on the fake pages - you don't need heads/legs/feet for baby production. 
Hope this answers the questions you've asked :-) It's the most beautiful book and it's so sad that all these people who have had their heads in it for decades choose now to turn away when it's opening up, it had to happen one day....

There are a good many choices that appear arbitrary in this presentation---the division of "real" and "human" plant pages, the assignment of English glosses to the glyphs, and the anatomical structures you claim to see on the various plants. To that last point, I admit to being extremely confused how the lower body ended up between the waist and uterine horns on 19v; if that is what the artist intended, I certainly don't see it. I looked for your papers on Academia, but they appear to have been removed, and since I can only go off what is available, I continue to note there is a real shortage of proof here. For another instance, when you assert that Renaissance thinkers linked chest and reproductive health, I simply don't see that in evidence. This is the sort of place where you'd need to cite someone---either primary sources or a credible expert speaking to this belief---in order to establish this very non-obvious fact.

I have already conceded that I could turn to any page and read off the glosses you've provided, which is why I don't think further interpretations in this vein will add new evidence to your position. If your argument is that you intuited the meaning of these symbols and drawings, you are going to find that people who don't share your intuition are utterly unconvinced. Even people who share your gut instincts on the manuscript should want that to be confirmed by other lines of inquiry, and I simply do not see you trying to provide that.
