Let me tell you, I am incredibly jazzed right now because after a lifetime of passive attempts, and a solid three months of resource-devouring, daily meditation and energy work-ing active attempts, last night, I just had my first intentional projection from a lucid dream.
Yesterday I had created a sigil with the intention to lucid dream, and boy did I ever. After a mad flurry of eight or nine individual dreams last night, at least half of them lucid, I finally came to a place in one of my final dreams where I realized I was dreaming, but no matter how hard I tried, I was unable to manifest the vivid, crisp dreamscape detail that is usually present in my lucid dreams. Frustrated with this, I enacted something I'd read on this forum: that falling backwards in a dream could trigger a projection. And it worked! Contrary to what I expected though, instead of triggering a projection right from the dream, falling actually woke me up very slightly, to where I was pulled back to my physical body finding it right in the exact state where I could project. It happened very naturally with only minimal effort, and then I immediately found myself hovering at branch-level, facing a tree that was just outside my room in the dusk, which was about what time it was in reality.
I'll not go into too much detail as I'm sure most of you already know what astral projection feels like, I just wanted to share my happy success and report back on the falling backwards technique.
I wish you all well!
