Zodiac 101

[pjburkshire]

I do not think the zodiac pages in the Voynich Manuscript are a standard generic zodiac calendar.  I think they are more like a process or possibly a schedule for some kind of medical treatment or medicine preparation.

Just as a potential example:

St. John's Wort Oil (used for burns, cuts, etc.)

Chop the flowers and then soaking in wine or vinegar for 3 - 10 days
Strain, then add to oil 
Place jar in the sun for 40 - 70 days
