I could be way off base here, but I thought projection was where you projected what you were actually feeling on to someone else.

eg if I was feeling strongly disapproving towards my T, then if I'm projecting, I'm assuming that he is feeling strongly disapproving towards me.

I also thought that you aren't always aware of projecting, so in the above example, I may not realise that I'm disapproving first. I may think I'm disapproving of him *because* he is supposedly disapproving of me. Hope that made sense.

Whereas transference is where if my dad was always disapproving of me, I might *feel* this being re-enacted with my T, whether it is actually happening or not.

They look kind of similar there, but I think there is a distinct difference between the two.
