Register or Login to view.It is useless trying to decipher the Voynich script before knowing what the book means. It seems like a paradox but it is not. I firmly believe that we can know what the VM transmits through the examination of the images.Fortunately the ms has images along with the text. The interpretation of any image will help to break the code as it gives aditional info of the potential content of the text.
It is a mistake to try to interpret any page or any section. The book is a whole and you have to see its internal correspondences. The authors have not wanted to draw real herbs, but to show how the virtue of plants is generated by celestial influences. We see stars everywhere, even in the section wrongly called Recipes.

Quote:The [VMS] is a whole and you have to see its internal correspondences...through the examination of the images.--sensible idea, 2 simple observations:
Quote:The authors have not wanted to draw real herbs, but to show how the virtue of plants is generated by celestial influences.--how so?
Quote:We see stars everywhere129 / 225 pages ( 57.3% ) of 'Herbal', 'big plants' -no stars
Quote:The essence of these celestial influences is locked in those elaborate containers that we see in the so-called Pharmaceutical section. We see similar precious containers on the Rosettes page--yes, the 6 containers in the centre look very similar to some pharma jars.
Quote:The zodiacal section lacks the cold signs, Capricorn and Aquarius.--yes, but, "there is a missing folio (f74) exactly at the point where they should have appeared." voynich.nu
Quote:The astrological and magical character of the VM is evident.--Astrological ,yes 12 pages of it
Quote:It has a certain relationship with the books of Alfonso X the Wise, something that members of this forum such as David Jackson, MarcoP, ReneZ and others have seen before me.--yes, the Libro de astromagia de Alfonso X el Sabio has some zodiac images surrounded by 30 aspects, similar to the ones in the VMS.
Quote:the medicinal virtues of herbs are provided by the stars.I could believe this, but where is the meat, please show me something, anything.

I have come to think that in reality there is no will to solve the mystery of a book that, despite its originality, fits perfectly in its time.
I say again that this book will cease to be an enigma when it is taken seriously by art historians and iconography experts.
