It is a mistake of iconological interpretation to confuse the floral decoration of manuscripts with what we see in

All the illustrations in this codex, contemporary with the Voynich, have the same motifs drawn in their corners: oval shapes with dots. This insistence on drawing the same thing in an astronomy book is pure symbolism. It does not reflect anything real but, as JKP says about the Rosettes of the VM, it is an abstraction of a cosmolofical idea.
The idea is that the last sphere of the cosmos, that of the stars, is pierced like a Gruyère cheese. Through these holes the stars send theirs rays.
The interpretation of the Voynich's images (including the misnamed nymphs, umbrellas, tubes and other elements) is so important that if its cosmological vision is not understood it is imposible to understand the script and its meaning.
The
Tratado de Astrologia is the best document of its time to understand the VM and proves that the Voynich is not a hoax at all but a genuine work.
