"The Voynich Manuscript has long stood as one of the greatest undeciphered texts in human history, baffling linguists, cryptographers, and historians for over 600 years.  Despite extensive efforts, no existing language, code, or cipher has been conclusively mapped to its content.  In this paper, we propose a novel hypothesis:  The Voynich Manuscript is written in a compressed shorthand system based on 15th-century Czech scribal traditions, interwoven with Latin root words, and infused with the symbolic language of alchemy, herbal medicine, and astrology.  Drawing from historical evidence of shorthand practices in the Bohemian region during the late medieval period, combined with the widespread use of Latin in scholarly and esoteric texts, we reconstruct a plausible linguistic framework that interprets each glyph in the manuscript as representing entire words or even conceptual phrases.  This interpretation not only bridges linguistic, cultural, and historical contexts, but also provides a consistent rationale for the manuscript's recurring motifs of plants, bathing women, and astrological charts.  If validated, this approach could mark a significant breakthrough in understanding the manuscript and reposition it within the intellectual landscape of 15th-century Bohemia.  The formalization of the shorthand key and cross-referencing with contemporary Czech, Latin, and alchemical manuscripts for validation and further research."

"A Mystical Commentary on The Book of Lambspring is an esoteric interpretation of the classic 17th century text. The book differs from many alchemical works by almost entirely avoiding overt references to physical laboratory processes. Instead, the material provides an overview of the arc of mystical transmutation and a set of deep inner transformations that are pointed out in the commentary. The complete text and cycle of 15 emblematic engravings are presented alongside a detailed analysis that is articulated through the Kabbalistic symbol system. Accompanying this, is a set of originally constructed graphic seals that translate the content into sacred geometry through an unusual array of devices, such as the ibri gate and 9 chambers. The goal is for this masterpiece of the alchemical tradition to become accessible to serious practitioners of Hermeticism and Kabbalah for use in inner spiritual work."

"Lavishly illustrated, Art and Alchemy accompanies an exhibition of the same name at the Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf that brings together historical texts and a selection of artworks that take alchemy as their inspiration. Among the works discussed are Melancholy by Lucas Cranach the Elder, an oil painting that plays on the classical alchemical element; Jan Brueghel the Elder’s The Allegory of Fire; and a variety of works by Dutch painter, draftsman, and printmaker Hendrick Goltzius."

Alchymia Archetypica: Theurgy, Inner Transformation and the Historiography of Alchemy by Hereward Tilton

In late antiquity and the Middle Ages the ambiguous and often surreal symbolism of alchemy was purposefully employed to protect closely guarded secrets of laboratory practice, which most commonly concerned the manipulation and simulation of precious metals. Enigmatic figures such as the green lion, the black sun and the hermaphrodite were elements of a cipher language for the initiated laboratory worker; usually the tracts utilising this language were readily recognisable as recipes, but the extended allegories of Arabian and Hellenistic Egyptian provenance provided a further level of abstraction in the relationship of sign to referent.
