Astral Body Generally equivalent to the Sanskrit linga-sarira, the ethereal model-body, usually invisible to our physical eyes, upon which the physical body (sthula-sarira) is modeled.

There are three ethereal forms or bodies which might properly be called astral bodies:

1)    mayavi-rupa -- the illusory form-body of thought and substance projected by high initiates;

2)    linga-sarira -- the model- or pattern-body, the second principle of the human constitution; and

3)    kama-rupa -- the phantom or spook which is seen occasionally in the vicinity of graves or which occasionally materializes at seances.

A Theosophical definition of Astral Body :

Astral Body

This is the popular term for the model-body, the linga-sarira. It is but slightly less material than is the physical body, and is in fact the model or framework around which the physical body is builded, and from which, in a sense, the physical body flows or develops as growth proceeds. It is the vehicle of prana or life-energy, and is, therefore, the container of all the energies descending from the higher parts of the human constitution by means of the pranic stream.

The astral body precedes in time the physical body, and is the pattern around which the physical body is slavishly molded, atom by atom. In one sense the physical body may be called the deposit or dregs or lees of the astral body; the astral body likewise in its turn is but a deposit from the auric egg.
