In a religious or spiritual context,

1. vision:显灵(something which is apparently seen otherwise
than by ordinary sight; esp. an appearance of a prophetic
or mystical character, or having the nature of revelation,
supernaturally presented to the mind either in sleep or in
an abnormal state-OED)
2. astral body:灵体(the ethereal counterpart or shadow of a
human or animal body-OED)
陆氏《英汉大词典》所给译文是“灵魂，魂魄”，我觉得这容易
与"soul"的中译混淆，因此把"astral body"试译为“灵体”。不知
诸位专家有何高见。
3. psychic:通灵的，超自然的
4. occult:神秘的，超自然的
Although both "psychic" and "occult" are often used
synonymously, yet they convey different shades of
emphasis. "Psychic" emphasizes on an abnormal state of
mind, while "occult" generally means being in touch with
hidden knowledge. And "psychic power" is 通灵能
力；"occultism" 神秘学。

Don't worry! Me not crossed as long as you are not star-crossed.

A "psychic" generally refers to someone with ESP
(extrasensory power). For believers, he can be a man-god
(道成肉身；半仙；神人；法眼). For non-believers, he's simply
a witch (巫师；占星术士；命相术士). In the context of
Chinese qigong, he's a qigong guru (气功大师 or
有特异功能者).
visions: 显灵；
astral journey: 魂游；
occult: 密宗的；神秘的
Astrology and alchemy are occult sciences.
星相学和炼丹术属神秘学。
