Matter of perspective/semantics/distortion, dear Zen. It just so occurred to someone to apply this fancy term to "out-of-body experiences" and "non-physical reality." Technically speaking, «astral» (from Latin astralis, from Latin astrum, from Greek astron) strictly refers to stars, so if anything, the "astral planes/dimension" should be located in the sun or any other star by its very definition.
I didn't coin the term. If it were entirely up to me, I'd do without it.
But yes, there are different "levels" to time/space, that I won't argue.

You don't necessarily "go" anywhere when you die. You are already there/here. At the death of the physical vehicle (or an "out-of-body" or powerful "mystical" experience while yet incarnated) your consciousness is merely shifted from space/time focus to time/space focus; so yes, in essence, pre and post incarnation are time/space. However, this is not to say you are not in time/space right now. You are presently in time/space while incarnated in space/time. For further clarification read this post here: What is difference between time/space and space/time? Now, just as space/time has a 1st density, a 2nd, a 3rd, a 4th, and so on, with various physical locations, regions, and topographies, time/space is similar; only that it is a metaphysical non-local reality where one moves through time rather than space, hence the extreme "fluidity."
