The tubes are an essential part of the Voynich because, for its authors, astral influence is channeled through them.
When we see female figures inside tubes holding stars in certain zodiac signs, what this actually signifies is that the stars themselves are the ones inside the tubes. In medieval cosmology, these stars occupy the outermost sphere, separated from one another yet filling the entire sphere; they are kept apart by the tubes through which they channel their influence.
On the Rosettes page—a vision of the medieval cosmos—we see tubes in the central sphere and in another of the spheres. In reality, it is the entire universe that is traversed by those tubes. The authors did not need to fill every sphere with them; it was enough to simply suggest it.
