The ancients aimed their minds (intentionality) in ways different than we do today. The different experience of sensation, emotions and cognition is reflected in the Greek language and may help form a theoretical framework for astrological influences. Schmidt argues that planets are consciousnesses and provides an example of a theoretical framework for astrology by relating them to the different metaphysical worlds proposed by Plato and others.
