lucid dreaming -> astral projection?

[Alue]

I was searching through the board and I didn't notice any threads about astral projection through dreaming (if there is a thread, i'm sorry! but it'd be great to be linked there). I've also looked online but usually when I search for it, mainly lucid dreaming stuff comes up and that's not what I want.

I feel I should give some info on how far into lucid dreaming I am, to show my control and such.
Every time I dream, I lucid dream. Sometimes I just play along with the plot line. Lately, I have been able to fight against what my dream wants, and go to an area I've made a 'head quarters' of sorts; I call it the Tower. I could give information on where it is, etc. in my dream world, but I don't think that is needed. But either way, in my dreams I'm able to go to the Tower, shape-shifting for the most part, use 'the force', flying, fire breathing, and last night I was able to walk through glass doors (there are probably things I'm forgetting).

Because I've read that through meditation, some people use a 'door' of sorts. I tried to bring that into my dream, by drawing a door on the wall and opening it, then trying to escape my body. It didn't work, though. I've had dreams where I've wondered if I was astral projecting, but in my dream world, real life places differ. So I can tell when it's a dream.

I'm sorry if this is too much information to give for tips on astral projection from lucid dreaming, but I feel it could be helpful somehow?? I dunno, but I'd love some advice!

What is your question?

Astral projection is easiest while the body is asleep and the mind is awake. If you lucid dream well, force yourself to wake up into a state of mind which will allow you to astral project. If that makes sense?

Ah, sorry if I didn't make it clear what I was asking! I tend to ramble a bit much.

I'm trying to get from lucid dreaming to astral projection.

@corvidus I think I slightly understand what you mean, maybe? I just struggle to leave my body, and can't seem to find a way.
