	Aether (classical element) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aether (also spelled ether), the Void, is a concept, historically, used in science (as a medium) and in philosophy (as a substance).
		The word aether (αἰθήρ) in Homeric Greek means "pure, fresh air" or "clear sky", imagined in Greek mythology to be the pure essence where the gods lived and which they breathed, analogous to the aer breathed by mortals (also personified as a deity, Aether, the son of Erebus and Nyx).
		Among these characteristics, the classical aether had a non-material property, was "less than the vehicle of visible light", and was responsible for "generating metals" along with fostering the development of all bodies.

	Classical element - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aristotle added aether as the quintessence, rationalizing that whereas Fire, Earth, Air, and Water were earthly and corruptible, the stars were not made out of any of the four elements but rather a heavenly substance.
		The word aether was revived by late 19th century physicists as a term for the proposed invisible medium which permeated the universe, the luminiferous aether.
		Most modern astrologers use the four classical elements extensively, and indeed it is still viewed as a critical part of interpreting the astrological chart.

		Aristotle added aether as the quintessence, rationalizing that whereas Fire, Earth, Air, and Water were earthly and corruptable, the stars were eternal ("aether" is based on Greek for eternity) and were thus not made out of any of the four elements but rather a heavenly substance.
		The word aether was revived by early 20th century physicists as a term for the invisible medium which permeated the universe (also called dark energy or dark matter).
		The idea of the classical elements was known during medieval times, and, like much Aristotelian dogma, composed a large part of the medieval world view.
