Hey Stefan, there's something you agree with me on. We'll have to celebrate!
Indeed, in your German language (which I love because my granddaughter is half German) the moon is a masculine noun. But, as you will have seen in the Voynich, the moon is depicted with feminine features. This does not mean that their authors were not German. They very well could have been, but as cultured men they used Latin for their works, especially if they were scientific, as is the case with Voynich.
The fact that we see hundreds of female figures in the codex has no other explanation than the fact that in Latin star, stella, is a feminine name.
You say that my idea that female figures are a representation of the stars is a thin-iced idea. But I tell you, it's the key to understanding what the Voynich is.
