Morphology
The meaning 'to progress past an issue or stage' is directly derivable from combining 'move' (to proceed) with 'beyond' (past/at a further point); the composition follows a basic motion/extension pattern that applies to both concrete and abstract contexts. This verb + particle construction is cross-linguistically common and predictable, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
The phrasal verb move beyond comes from the simple picture of walking past a fence or obstacle. You move and go beyond it to reach new ground, so it means 'to progress past' a problem, stage, or old idea and go on to something new.
