Etymology
Celestially comes from the Latin word caelum, meaning 'sky' or 'heaven'. So celestially means 'in a heavenly or sky-like way', and you can see the same root in the word ceiling, the top of a room like the 'sky' above you, which is why we use celestially for stars, light, or a voice that seems from above.
