Voynich is encrypted ENOCH

[Radim Dobeš]

1) This symbol defines the cardinal direction of South.
2) Based on the description in the Book of Enoch: The second cardinal direction is named South, for there descend both the Most High and the Blessed One forever.
3) The symbol *Resh* from the magical angelic alphabet *Malachim* is used.
4) In Enoch’s visions, God reveals Himself specifically as the "Head of Days."
5) God as the "Head of Days" is the One who stands at the very pinnacle and beginning of time. Here, *Resh* represents the source from which all subsequent days of creation flow.
6) I further present the use of this symbol in magical amulets and talismans.
7) (2022) *Iconography of Magic: Images of Power and the Power of Images in Ancient and Late Antique Magic*, Raquel Martín-Hernández, 2022, Studies in the History and Anthropology of Religion 7.
8) *Picatrix*
9) *Figures between Antiquity and the Renaissance: Transmission and Rediscovery*, Richard Gordon.
10) *The Greater Key of Solomon*, L.W. Laurence.

The Malachim alphabet is from the 16th century. 

I could not find Resh as meaning South, it evidently means Head? Can you clarify where the south connotation comes from and where it is used? I have heard this before but again without sources.

In my opinion, this is one of the clearest examples showing that the VMS represents a map of Enoch’s journey through the various heavens. The accompanying image includes direct quotes from the Book of Enoch. The North is the place where people live and is divided into three parts; the East symbolizes the sun and comes first; the South is where the Chosen One descends (hence the Tetragrammaton or the letter *resh*); and the West is where the sun sets.
