Hi Lily!
I'll try to explain this the best I can. I actually learned the technique from Frank, who used to moderate here (and I copied and pasted the text from into the FAQ.)
You have to stand still in the dream. Suppose you dream that you're at a party with a bunch of people dancing. If you want to project, then stop dancing, stand completely still, and focus on something in the room. It could be someone's shirt, the colour of the wall, the music, etc. Keep focusing on it until you feel a spinning sensation. That is the conversion of the dream to an astral projection or OBE. As you feel the spinning sensation, the dream scenery will fade away and you will find yourself in your new surroundings. Please note that you can end up in the Real Time Zone, the astral proper or a lucid dream.
It will take a few seconds for you to get your bearings. Once you do, you will know instinctively if you are in a lucid dream or out of body experience. You may question it after you wake up, asking yourself "was it really an OBE?", but it's your initial instinct that will tell them apart. Always go by that.
Hope this helps!
Jen

Congrats on your astral time travel!
I think you verified the year yourself through instinct and landmarks. If you're out-of-body and out on the town, try stopping by the bank, as they usually give the time and temp...(some may give the date, I'm not sure), or at least they do here in the US. If you can get the time and temp, you may be able to track down the date through an almanac or other historical record.
What was the weather like that day? Was there snow on the ground? Was it raining? What season was it? Do you know?
Another way to gauge the approximate date would be to look at a newspaper in a store. Read the headlines, memorise one or two of them, and then verify them by going to the local historical society, internet, or the newspaper's office itself. If you could get ahold of the actual paper, that's great; however, internet news articles tend to be archived in one form or another for years (and newspapers across a given country will tend to carry the same national headlines).
What technique did you use to time-travel?
Curious,
Jeni
