So another issue would be how does one manage to shift consciousness once a projection has occurred to the projected double? Also in regards to reentry what are the symptoms one experiences?
The way I do it is- calm down, deep breathe, wait for really strong symptoms, attempt an exit- the exit depends on the symptoms.
Symptoms: Vibrations- (I try to 'go with them' like catching a wave)
Deeply real hypnagogics- I will try to 'throw myself into the scene'. Usually there is a rocking back-and forth motion- I wait for the 'forth' and jump in.
Astral Vision- Test for paralysis- if paralyzed, Get up or roll off.
If not, try to wait a bit and try 'rope' or other technique that doesn't involve moving my actual limbs.
Also do you feel physical paralysis near prejection?
Absolutely. I don't even attempt it if I don't think I'm paralyzed. The reason being that moving ruins the exit attempt. If I'm not paralyzed but feel like I might lose the 'window of opportunity' I'll attempt a mental type of projection, which gives a different experience.
