Etymology
The word astrally comes from the root astr- meaning 'star', the same root in astronaut and astronomy. Because people often link stars with other worlds or spirits, astrally means 'in a way like a spirit' or 'as if in the stars', so to travel astrally is to go beyond your body into another place.
