Uncertain, Did I AP? Am I going in the right direction? Options

Hi, everyone. I'll try to make this short.

I've been attempting astral projection, but one night whilst dreaming, I had a dream (seemingly) I was in my room in my bed, and as I try to get up to reach something, I go right back onto my bed as if I had not gotten up. It was reminiscent of those occurrences where you're sleeping and you have to get up for something, then you have a dream you just did that task, but you really didn't.

When I ended up back on my bed, I tried the task again (I don't remember what I was trying to do), I got up, in the process of doing the task, I was transported back onto the bed, and I finally realized that I was sleeping, and that I was sleep paralyzed. It didn't fully occur to me I was actually dreaming though, just enough to where I was calm.

I then said to myself that since I'm in this state, I'll try AP. I shift my consciousness away from my body and immediately I'm floating at the side of my bed in a milky white body with no torso or legs.

There's a little more to the story but I'll stop there. My question is, does anyone think this was an astral projection from a dream or not?

- I've heard when you AP, your vision becomes 360 degrees, mine was not. My vision was a normal first person viewpoint. I would love clarification on this.
- I did feel as if I was disconnected from my actual 'dream' body when this was happening, and the event itself is still quite vivid.

Thanks.

Yes. This is how it starts for a lot of people. Your vision and senses will change as your experience takes you further from the material world. In the lower etheric world, just on the other side of physical, is where most people spontaneously eject to. Its very common to be disoriented, have difficulty moving around, and to try and touch or interact with things that won't operate the way they are supposed to, or seem to be too heavy, stuck, etc.

When I say senses will change, I mean that their analogs in the etheric and astral body function differently on different levels - you can achieve 360 degree vision at the etheric level, it just isn't naturally 'stuck' that way.

Good luck, and congratulations!

peace
