What does /x/ think about the Voynich Manuscript? Is it a Medieval book about alchemy and/or astrology or just the works of a lunatic?

It was probably a troll from way back when...
I think it's a book on astrology, alchemy and botany. The women in picture related are probably The Pleiades and there is a rich alchemical and astrological lore around them.
glossolalia
So, yes lunacy.

Written by the faceless God, its about the future and how to brew the Holy Spirit Oil.

Snake oil. Confirmed troll.

Factless claim. Confirmed faggot.

Trolls sure put a lot of effort back then... It's a lost art.

imo I think it's just a really old fantasy book. I know that with things like these we want to believe it's true but it's been so long and no one has ever found real life examples of the plants he/she had in the book. We also still can't read it, which sucks.
>>17974724
I will. It tastes like snozzberries.

Fake and gay

Terence McKenna could communicate in glossolalia on command.
>>17974637
I guess it's about botany.

First learned of it in a book I own, then listened to Terrence McKenna talk about it

The number of ways it seems to resist the obvious conclusion of being a hoax is fascinating. Would make it among the top most fascinating hoaxes in history considering how many scholars it's managed to absorb in studying it.
Most obvious /x/ conclusion would be that it's from an alternate reality, like objects supposedly withdrawn from Mel's Hole, or the Green Children of Woolpit who were historically recognized as having really existed.
