Was This Astral Projection?, my experience Options

every day till now i've only emergerd into a dreamlike trance state.
at the beginning of praccticing i only could slighty shut off my tactile sense,later i learned to shut my hearing sense as well, and ultmately i've been getting into a deep trance state like where i can feel or hear nothing, and sometimes not even think, but i am aware of it.

Today is my third month of practice and while practicing astral projection i fall into a dream where a tall man was walking behind me, and a couple( man and woman) beside me
at night. it was in the same place i run all nights, it scared me, not the couple ,but the tall thin man, at that moment i lost control of the dream and i felt my whole body vibrate, like really intense vibrations, and i got scared,(mainly i got worried of my physical body having really bad or no circulation at all)
anyways i wanted to ask.Was this Astral Projection? or was i somewhere near it?

thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bicycle.gif)

I think you're very close to actual Astral Projection, but not quite there yet. What you experienced was more of a lucid dream. Keep it up! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bigwink.gif) You're almost there.
