Looking at the two other folios in this series, here's what we have:
69v: a central circle containing an 8 pointed star at the center, with smaller stars filling the space between the branches of the star, with 28 labelled tubes radiating from it.
The diagram is surrounded by three bands of text.
70r1: a central circle containing a 6 pointed star at the center with a vord between each branch, with 58 small "petals" radiating from it (every other one is either blank, or dotted with two or three dots). This is surrounded by a circular band of text.
Further out, there is a second circle, wiith 9 irregularly shaped protrusions radiating it and a few vords between each.
It is hard to tell if the blue dots which color the outer circle and protrusions is part of the original pen design, or if it was added exclusively in blue paint.
Further out the diagram is surrounded by two bands of text, and an additional compass line is visible around it but only features text (and dots) in the part above the drawing (see a brief discussion of this feature You are not allowed to view links.

70r2: a central figure containing a face (discussed in the above posts) surrounded by a band of text. A second circle is drawn around it, from which sixteen shapes protrude: every other one is a short, wavy, flame-like shape, while the remaining 8 form an initial bulb which stretches outwards in straight lines to meet the edges of a third circle. In between each of these, 8 more shapes, triangular with scalloped edges, also point towards the outer circle, ending in straight lines.
The diagram is surrounded by four bands of text.
Why do I bother with these descriptions? The posited "mansions of the moon" interpretation for 69v is based on the 28 tubes and words around the central star.
Looking at the other two folios, there may be some significance to the number of features depicted: 70v1's 58 petals and 9 divisions, or 70v2's 16 (or 2x8) divisions.
Koen Gh, just saw your reply: I wasn't doubting that the cross-eyed thing is there, but stating that whether it is intentional or not, because you have proven that it
is a regular feature in the Voynich artists' style for depicting eyes, then we must discard it as a specific identifier for the Leo iconography.
Regarding the knot, for practical reasons there are not really clothing styles with two knots on either side like that, except in women's styles (see You are not allowed to view links.

With respect to the illustration you linked to however, I am more interested in the two shapes on either side of this Sun's face: are those little mini-suns? Flowers?
