Astral Projection is a quite rare ability to extend at least a portion of your body outward to the astral world.
Projecting one's true self can be harmful and chaotic to the outside world, like when angels extend their true form. If a human completely leaves their body, they become much like a living ghost, gaining all the powers that ghosts do (Super strength, Teleportation, Telekinesis etc.) but only after plenty of practice.
