Depending on the context, not as much as "illusion". Read the link.

The link literally does not contain the word “illusion”. It has no discussion about why the word “hallucination” might be preferable.

I’m not clear why you linked it, honestly. I fail to understand the jump from “astral projection” to “hypnagogic hallucinations”.

Was your intent to just say that sometimes the medical profession uses the word “hallucination”? That doesn’t give the word positive connotations, especially with laypersons.
