It’s time once again for that dizzying [*] highpoint of the Cipher Mysteries calendar – the London Voynich Winter pub meet.
As normal, I’m more than happy to adjust the precise date to fit around any visiting Voynichero’s schedule (or perhaps if you just happen to be stuck in one of our wonderfulle historycke aero-portes), so please say ASAP if you plan to be passing through London over the next 2-4 weeks and would like to come along too.
The current plan – as far as it goes – is to meet up at the historic Dog And Duck in Soho one Sunday afternoon in January (i.e. the 9th, 16th, or 23rd), and to then go on for a Chinese meal at the excellent New Mayflower on Shaftesbury Avenue, where a certain ‘Mr Voynich’ once had his antiquarian bookshop. Unless you have a better idea?
If you’d like to come along, drop me an email saying which dates you can do, and I’ll try to set something up accordingly.
Hope to see you there – cheers!

Nick, shorten the tedium in the pub.

These people are trying to explain what the picture expressed by the Voynich manuscript, which is labeled 67r. To understand image is important, knowledge of alchemy. Before we started using visual symbolism was important for the alchemical notation, geometric symbolism. And this picture is an example of what he looked like a symbolic geometric registration in real life.
The old alchemical books are writen :
Make circle of men and women. From this square. From this triangle. Make a circle. And you the philosopher’s stone.
(This guidance reflects image 67r.)
Because alchemists encrypt everything is crystal clear that this manual is encrypted.
Instuctions are correct. From right to left !!!
1.circle ( it’s the middle)
2.Triangle ( This is the second and make TWO)
3.Sguare ( This is the Third and make THREE).
Finally , make a circle.
A circle is divided into two parts.
( Month = women, circle = men).
Picture = geometric expression the Philosopher’s Stone.
one circle = 1
Two triangles = six peaks = 26.
Three square = 12 peaks = 312.

It is therefore this figure , the number 1 is the axis. Otherwise, everything is the 67 r writes, is alchemy.

Josef: I’ve never found meeting Voynich researchers in a pub to be tedious!
Nick, please, say in English as a geometric shape a square. It still shows me the square. In Czech, the square is the center of town.
And as we say in English Stitch (( zasij ( sead plants)). Et shows me pretty crap, Stitch.
The manuscript is betting that abounds. Everywhere where the word implant should be a word that means betting.
It is quite difficult to translate the into English.
I’d email you, but i can’t find your email address on your site. I can make the 9th and the 16th.
Jasper: my email is [email protected] – I’ll be setting the date in a couple of days’ time, will let you know, hope to see you there…

I’d be surprised to learn that the author of the VM used the metric system.
Sorry to spoil your fun, boys, but I think it’s about time we lay this discussion to rest. It’s just Khutsuri, and you’re holding it sideways.
