Here is an attempt to render the two paradigms of the Voynich text, QOKEEDY and CHOLDAIIN as astrological notation. More specifically, they are presented as astrological formulae.
If the text is not linguistic but is, in reality, a record made in some form of astrological notation, what are the values of the glyphs? How does the notation work?
The feature of the current attempt to work out the values of the paradigms is the proposal that each word identifies one particular degree of the ecliptic.
Each word is, as it were, a formula that points to one of the 360˚ of the zodiac.
In astrology, the individual degrees are often called paranatellonta and a degree so marked in a horoscope is often called the PARAN.
(There are more technical applications of these terms, but we will adopt them here.)
The challenge is to find a set of formulae that are both astrologically cogent and conform to the habits and nature of the text.
This current attempt is by no means complete, but it does have some innate virtues and is a step towards finding a masterkey.
To recap: as I now conceive it, the text is founded upon two paradigms, QOKEEDY and CHOLDAIIN, and each of these are formulae from which the astrological notation of the text is an extrapolation.
These formulae, I posit, are simple equations by which the ecliptic is divided into its traditional (Ptolemaic) divisions: binaries, triplicities and quaternities, the twelfold cycle and the eightfold cycle.
