Voynich manuscript explained

This weekend I was invited to present my Voynich Manuscript results in a Zoom conference entitled “Days of Joy according to Saint Hildegard”. This was organized by Jolita Bernotiene and a group of Hildegard von Bingen enthusiasts in Musteika, Lithuania.

It was four years ago that I challenged myself with trying to understand this, the most enigmatic manuscript on earth. I succeeded! I published my results in a YouTube video which can be accessed HERE. This video has had 55,000 views!

Since then, I have been repeatedly requested to present my findings. One presentation was in the Lithuanian language, at the National Library of Medicine in Vilnius. This video can be accessed HERE. The most recent recording was three months ago as part of a Neurology Through Art and Time series of the International Child Neurology Association which can be accessed HERE.

As a capsule summary, this manuscript is an early 15th century manual to treat women’s illnesses, using herbs, bathing rituals and chants, incorporating astrologic and astronomic principles. It was written in a women’s convent and due to the ongoing inquisition, needed to be so encoded that no one would be able to understand its purpose. The primary source of inspiration for this manuscript, and for its use, was Hildegard von Bingen, who lived 250 years earlier.

I have brought these healing rituals to life in a series of YouTube videos. One deals with bathing rituals, and can be accessed HERE. I invite you to view all of these brief videos to get a sense of how this manuscript was used.

Hopefully you will experience healing properties flowing from Hildegard von Bingen through the Voynich manuscript to you.
