Exactly, you choose not to give an example of your method. So we cant help you.
As an aside, here are some red flags i noticed in your posts.
. Lots of bold type
. Peculiar phrase usage pointing to an attempt at an argument-from-authority i.e doctoral-level
. Patent - can you patent a method and why would you want to.
. Unwilling to discuss Methodology -we are not really interested in a result like 'daiin' means 'moonflip' we want to know the steps taken to produce said result.
. Read my book.
. Unwilling to reveal more details because of Patent, Copyright, Book Publisher issues.
. Inconsistent reasons for posting here on an open medievalia discussion internet forum.
. Posted 'results' are word-salads or meaningless, nonsensical sentences i.e "and the soul shapes the body within that clarity.”
. Bad terminology e.g the famous Cheshire use of 'portfolio' instead of 'folio' in this case 'Alphabetic language'.
. Use of the words 'Framework' and 'symbolic' - these words have seen much abuse lately, i feel a bit sorry for them.
I hope you find what you are looking for, but i do not think you will find it here.

Maybe there is a language barrier here, but this is what I was referring to with 'critical feedback'. My post was meant to explain why your current approach to asking for this kind of feedback is unlikely to succeed. Which is by no means any judgement of your work, I would not consider myself qualified to do so, nor do I have the time to put in the hours that would probably be required. I am just mapping out the realities of academia since you asked for ways to approach scholars in one of your earlier posts.

Quote:Water moves with the force of life and purifies whatever it touches.
Its current teaches the soul measure and repose.
Fire accompanies it and tempers it; its warmth sustains virtue without destroying it.
From their union the living herb is born:
its roots drink the earth’s moisture,
its leaves preserve the sun’s clarity,
and the spirit of both circulates in its sap.
The air gathers its fragrance and carries its power throughout the world.
Thus water learns firmness from fire,
and fire learns gentleness from water.
When the soul beholds this concord, it remembers its origin:
it understands that the order of the elements
is also the order of thought.
And whoever knows that balance, is healed.

You gave translation for 1v:
Quote:Water moves with the force of life and purifies whatever it touches.

Tell us just which line in the original text contains the sentence:
Thus water learns firmness from fire,
and fire learns gentleness from water.
I suppose there should be some pattern like:
A B C D E
E B F D A
where A is "water" B is "learns", E is "fire" and so on.

Talking about red flags, this here seems to be right clear:
in all translations or interpretations this means "don't call us, we call you (never)" or, more directly "go play somewhere else".
That is the reaction of "Yale", should be representative for the whole academic world.
I think you will find no one of the demanded acedemic rank silently reading here and just waiting to do lots of work trying to understand your version of "solved it!" -- and there will probably nobody discretely hand you a calling card of some "expert" for Voynich deciphering. Fun fact: there are no such experts.

However, its a bit unclear what you want from this forum? If you do not want to share any information with us, how could anyone here help you? Since you are not a scientist in this field, why do you care about a journal publication? Theses journals are just useful in academia, if you are not in this world why you need the reputation of such journals? You could just upload your manuscript to arxiv or similar sites, put it on instagram, youtube or whatever if you think someone could steel your work. When you already patented your translation method, why you do not want to share it here?
Some points I am interested in: The old language you are talking about, is there any evidence it existed? Are there any translations for that? Or is it a forgotten language that you translate into Spanish and English?
