There are three (?) crosses in the manuscript. Two are placed on top of crowns, symbols of monarchy.
Quote:In JKP's latest You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., he explains the use of the cross-pole. One of the images he linked I found particularly interesting, since it also includes a set of wavy lines:
The gentlemen are using a sighting tube and astrolabe respectively, but what is the thing all the way on the left? It also appears to include a cross shape. Might it be some kind of armilary sphere with ecliptic and equator?

There's something else about this image which might be interesting for Voynich research in general. You pointed out the relevance of the cloud band above the men. There are different types: the outer band has three lobes and the inner bands are serpent-like.
Might this mean the difference between "actual clouds", i.e. transition from the sky to what lies beyond on the one hand, and "invisible borders between zones" on the other?
If so, might the different patterns in the VM indicate a similar difference? I'm inclined to think so...
