Maybe some teach that the astral  body is the desire body. But in Theosophy
(and we are here on a theosophical maillist, don't?) the astral body is the
astral body and must not be confused with the desire body. May some like to
invent ultra modern terms and relabel the astral body to Logos body. Don't
worry. Everyone has the right to follow the teacher he likes most.
