I recently remarked that I am increasingly inclined to think the green fluid seen in Quire 13 corresponds to the vital force transmitted by the stars—the force that brings new life to the plant world. This idea belongs to medieval thought, to the way the world was viewed at that time.

  If we look at the first page of Quire 13 (f75r), we see female figures, together with the green fluid, cascading down from a platform shaped like a tent roof. That tent roof is a metaphor for the roof of the medieval universe. It is a drawing that appears elsewhere in the Voynich, and I would venture to say that its interpretation is quite certain.

   The ceiling of the medieval universe is the sphere of the fixed stars. Beyond it lies the realm of God. What we see on You are not allowed to view links.

I really like what you're writing.
