“In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value.” Alan Greenspan
Are you ever curious if you know more than you think you do?
Birdie Jaworski’s TransDimensional Mapping™ (TDM) is a mind-expanding exploration methodology. It allows you to view any subject blindly and demonstrates that you do know way more than you “think” you do.
You’re invited to follow one of my mapping journeys. The session reveals a roadmap outlining how a historic event altered world economics and its consequences, both positive and negative, considering our current standing in the aftermath of its effect over 50 years later.

Assigning a TDM Task
A group of supportive and fascinated friends created a basket of subjects to explore.
Each task is in its own sealed envelope, labeled with an eight-digit number assigned randomly as an identifier. The subject is only revealed after mapping. I had no idea what I was tuning into.
A session may last as long as one chooses. On a rainy Sunday morning, I had about an hour and with coffee in hand I felt primed and ready. I put my supplies on the table, pulled an unopened envelope, and placed it in front of a large sheet of drawing paper. I began the adventure.
So You Can Follow Along
You need to know “the experience” or reveal so you can follow along. Drum roll …
1971 – Shift to Fiat Currencies Reshaped Global Finance and Inflation Dynamics – Nixon Ends Gold Standard on August 15, 1971
Now you have “the reveal” and can follow along knowing what I didn’t know. Well, not consciously.
Each mapping experience has a unique flow. This one felt so neat, tidy, logical, and analytical. 🧐 I wanted to eavesdrop on secret conversations, incorporate flow charts, and analyze how people’s lives were being affected! The experience felt profoundly impactful.
This certainly isn’t a topic I’ve spent time contemplating. Heck, in 1971, I was a year out of high school, and I was more interested in attending a rock concert than learning about the US and world economics. Listening to CSNY vinyl albums while professing peace and love ✌️❤️ was foremost on my mind. I even protested the Vietnam War, which is about as close as I get to this topic.
Pen in Hand, Let’s Begin
In under forty minutes I completed this practice session. I could have easily spent a couple hours on this one, or more.
The map probably won’t translate to anything meaningful without context.
Therefore, imagine your inner knowing poking your logical mind with clues. Mapping takes willingness to follow what you “get” and mark the data on the map as it grabs your attention.
It’s like following bread crumbs that are left on a trail so you can find your way. It’s important to feel relaxed, stay in the flow. At one point you’ll feel the session is complete.

Breaking Down The Data
After mapping, it’s time to “deconstruct” the data and discover where the content leads.
The mapper also provides a simple interpretation before the reveal (note the data in the red outline on the map). Summary data includes a sense of the “who, what, when, where, and why.” These summary insights are gathered at completion of the map.
Next, post-reveal deconstruction validates “what ya get” and deepens the sensory information. At times, a mapper discovers remarkable detail about the topic in this process.
From a viewer’s observation, the map may or may not make much sense.
They might notice something of interest, might connect to hints of information, but probably not enough to identify the rich meaning of the sensory data.
The mappers “subconscious” provides sensory information leading to insights in many ways. Symbolism, metaphors, and analogy comprise a significant portion of its language. Essentially, remote viewers are not really “viewing;” they gather insights through building a language bridge between their logical mind and inner knowing (AKA subconscious mind).
For example, in this map, the phrase “the long tail” prompted me to analyze small and large trends and timelines.
Again, it is essential to “deconstruct” or analyze what you think your inner knowing was trying to reveal about the subject before opening the envelope. After, the data deepens through validation and research when filling in the mapping journey’s outline for a full and rich experience.
So let’s begin!
Join the Adventure: First Highlight, First Impression
Creating a quick impression ignites the first perspective of each adventure.
An intuitive mark termed an “ideogram,” provokes the gathering of the initial data. It starts the conversation followed by sensory/descriptive words and phrases.
Descriptive Words: ideas, expansion, opportunity, conversations, big topic, (keep it open ended so growth can exceed expectations.)
An Image Emerges
Two conversation bubbles point to data: Builds depth and interest through conversations. Many small actions become realized when caution and action work together.
Now, I am wondering who is contributing dialogue to the conversation bubbles?
The first bubble points to the initiator of this big topic.
More details point to his concerns. He wants to prepare for what feels like a long winter.
The other conversation bubble begins to take shape. It points to in-depth conversations with multiple people exploring “how to’s.”
Aha, others are also eager to support the initiator’s idea. They are calling a meeting with others to brainstorm how to address the effects of a long winter which is the need to create a plan with an open-ended concept so that growth can exceed expectations.
Historic Insight of Map’s Introductory Perspective
From August 13 to 15, 1971, Nixon and fifteen advisers, including Federal Reserve Chairman Arthur Burns, Treasury Secretary John Connally, and Undersecretary for International Monetary Affairs Paul Volcker (later Federal Reserve Chairman) met secretly at the presidential retreat at Camp David to come up with a new economic plan that could meet the challenges the country was facing to preserve U.S. gold reserves, protect the dollar, control inflation, and regain economic sovereignty in the face of unsustainable international and domestic pressures that could likely drain the US government’s gold reserves if not met head on.
A Metaphor analysis: Long Winter Comparison: Nixon’s 1971 decision was like closing the barn doors and rationing supplies before a long winter — an act of protection and adaptation in anticipation of a challenging, uncertain economic climate that would require endurance and change before stability could return.
New Perspective: Deeper Dive, Pointing to a Path of Analysis
The next data capture points to the analysis of the decisions that implemented the “How To’s” (End of Gold Standard) and its long-reaching impact over time.
A series of word descriptions expands on the long tail analogy.
Mapping points to descriptions like: climbing, focus, reaching, retiring (debt) through launching an easier way, and examining effects on life experiences.”
History Explains: Breaking Down The Long Tail Analogy
The easier way was attempting to give the economy elasticity so it could grow through innovation. Money became more of an idea rather than a fixed commodity.
It appeared to support inclusive funding programs, and increase motivation to spend. In essence, money became an idea rather than a fixed commodity.
It unleashed creativity, entrepreneurship, globalization in short term! This system change made it easier to rise, but also easier to fall. There was a focus on human potential but without instruments to guide it fragmentation eventually set in.
(As an afterthought, it’s fascinating how inner wisdom laid out a way to analyze the individual and world economic responses to ending the Gold Standard. The data perspective pivots, offering a path for measuring and documenting factual historic reactions.)
A Path for Analysis
What a rich, thought provoking sketch delivered with simplicity!
Let’s unpack the descriptive text pointing to this image and sense where my inner knowing is leading me.
Data affirms small actions are building momentum. Yes, changes are adding up. They appear as a graphic of progress steps reflecting benefits, an inflection point, then a descending trend pointing to guidance for a transformational period. Essentially steering the world and people’s lives into new personal and global patterns and options.
Note the two people/entities that appear together with a golden bubble behind them.
Are they partners, or do they represent the two percent? It appears they join for inclusive, sharing, and positive reasons.
The bubble feels like opportunity, yet, it’s a bubble. Also, progress steps ascend to a plateau, but each step heading down the other side points to options, global insights, expanded directions, and a question, what’s: “that feeling.” And now the suggestion to view results: Like a flow chart!
So let’s do just that, use the graphic as suggested by filling in historical data as a chart or roadmap to understand the far reaching, long tail effects which 50 years of history created reflecting the current Fiat Currencies.
Chart One: The Golden Bubble Effect
Through deeper deconstruction the simple graphic was extremely useful to chart the effects of Ending the Gold Standard over the last 50 years of history
Using this simple graphic suggesting partnerships over time fifty years of alliances have shaped modern finances since implementing Nixon’s plan. These partnerships interlocked, almost like gears in a global engine – to form the architecture of modern financial order.
The two beings at the top represent partnerships and perhaps they also suggest the 2% that rose to the top of an economic pyramid.
Chart Two: The Rise of Rebalance of Modern Money
Filling in data for this example it illustrates the upward steps, the plateau, and downward steps over the last fifty years referencing the long tail analogy.
The TDM’s perspective clearly pointed to an optimal way to deconstruct the sensory data along with exploring the shift in economic patterns from ending the gold standard. It revealed a roadmap to describe the transition and impact that created the Fiat Currencies era.
Where do We Go From Here?
First impressions in the TDM experience led to an introduction, followed by the how-tos and the cause and effect — so where do we go from here?
- What should I tell someone?
- What is most important?
- What’s the best way to view this task?
While viewing this mapping assignment, perspectives pointed to brainstorming to solve a problem and implement a strategy. Then bridged to insights gained through analyzing the rollout over time.
The round-up of sensory input suggested we begin to tap into the wisdom gained and implement progressive, inclusive ideas. Notice what is working. Use our senses, pay attention, and allow guidance.
Spiritual and Philosophical Awakening
Moving forward is an unfolding process that allows for a different perspective or a new approach. One that combines conservative and creative ideas in a way that works together. Be more self-involved versus dependent on others. Build on our positive experiences.
Essentially, we are in an unfolding era, and we need to listen, allow guidance, and pay attention. Can humanity think itself beyond its current “conditional awareness. If we think spiritually or philosophically, leaving the gold standard might symbolize humanity’s shift from material consciousness to mental creation — from “what we have” to “what we imagine.”
Are we at a serious inflection point calling us to wake up spiritually and recognize we have more options where we can work together and prosper together?
Wrapping Up the Session
The sensory data pointing to what’s most important felt circular. Descriptive terms are urging innovation; (an economic reinvention.)
Insights retreat to the initial meeting with the initiator (Nixon) and the team (15 participants at the Camp David meeting) and the present global economy where Fiat Currencies keep everything in constant motion.
At this point, suggestions were not subtle but clear, offering direction while being encouraging.
The Best View image indicated that if humanity works together, we could implement a path forward and chart upward by allowing new options (to increase potential for a better economic future for everyone.)
What About the Fiat?
The mapping experience concluded with a hint of humor! Fiat may also be metaphorical and symbolic.
In the 1970s, the Fiat automobile was plagued with the acronym “Fix it again, Tony.” Many owners experienced unreliability despite hoping for a stable, dependable ride. Yet they were attached and loved zipping around in their unique little cars.
I’ve learned that my inner knowing pokes with humor that’s revealed in my last few minutes of mapping when I ask, “Did I miss anything?”
The answer pointed to a material answer! What should we wear? and then pointed to a new car. 😂
What a humorous way to express materialism and the decision to rely on Fiat Currencies to drive the economy.
The last data also revealed we may be coming to a time where alternatives to Fiat Currencies is on the rise. The global economy may be primed to accept a new financial vehicle and a new image.
Final Thoughts
A mapping experience doesn’t end after mapping, or even after deconstructing the sensory data.
The experience stays alive through memory and felt senses. I’ve had maps where months later data I noted is reported in the news and fills in what hadn’t come to pass.
I have a feeling after this map that new currencies are on the horizon and in time could become stable economic instruments. It may take a few decades. Perhaps Bitcoin is the first wink.
For a new economic system I’d imagine it would take global agreement. A dependable new currency would need to be backed by multi-assets in a decentralized network as a stabilized global medium of exchange. Not an easy task.
As mapping suggests: Can humanity think itself beyond its current conditional awareness?
I doubt I’ll be here to experience this shift to a stable currency where all of humanity has a chance to prosper, but you might! Beep Beep~🚗
