So I've been spending an hour or so a day meditating and attempting to astral project. I've been using various guided meditations and for some reason I just can't visualize anything. When my eyes are closed and I'm not dreaming all I see is blackness and the occasional blurry splotch. Even when I'm in a deep meditative state and my mind is completely clear I can't really see anything with my mind's eye. I've read a bit on the subject and it sounds as though my third eye is closed, so I was wondering if this is an impediment to projecting? And regardless if it is or not what do I need to do to open my third eye? I've been noticing a pressure right above and between my eyes for around six months now which gets much more intense (but not painful) while meditating, before sleep, or when practicing visualization, and I've read that this means it's close to opening, but what do I need to do to cross that threshold?
In terms of astral projection I have felt a strange sensation as though I was moving independent of my body slightly, like my face wasn't quite aligned with where I knew my actual face was. Does this mean I'm on the right track?
