it contains an lvm stack, so there will be many virtual volumes inside.
after the luksOpen, check "ls -al /dev/mapper/*-private" and look for
the devices with the names of your old VMs.
you should be able to mount these.
hint: use "sudo mount /dev/mapper/whatever-private /mnt/whatever"
hint2: you will have to replace the "whatever" part there.
hint3: you will have to "sudo mkdir /mnt/whatever"

or create new VMs, and restore the whole private volumes with dd.

that sounds more like you are just booting from your ssd into the fresh
install.
