Had a lucid this morning. Decided to mirror teleport to visit the moon and look back at the earth. Something I've been wanting to do since I started.

Found a big mirror in the house. There were people floating about it it.
I could call up friends or movie stars or characters from books and they would fly up like ghosts.

Anyhow I put my hand in it, and it rippled star gate style. I then stepped into it. But all I say was just black/grey nothing.

Decided to back out of the mirror. The room slowly reconstructed around me.

So what am I doing wrong? Any Ideas?

I think I read about someone having a similar experience on another thread. Is it a common failure. Or did it just happen that way because I read about it?

Any advice much appreciated.
