I was practicing Astral projection and I wanted to see Lady Astarte.Then I wanted to visualize seeing her and hugging her. But then, right after I visualized her, I felt her hugging me without me hugging her, and I felt her love warming me. It was like a mother's love. Could I have really hugged her?

Yes, It seems you definitely have been.
Last year, a similar phenomenon happened when I was crying out and apologizing to Father Zeus a year ago (as I have read some experienced this as well). His energy calmed me directly and felt like a hug. The love of the gods is very real and they do listen to us when we address them.
Possibly. Only one way to find out. Ask her while focusing on her sigil.
