On TransDimensional Mapping Practice
Your New Era
You have learned TransDimensional Mapping.
You have traveled the universe with your mind.
You have explored the deepest past and the most far-flung futures. You have examined your own life lessons, considered how the Great Pyramid at Giza was built, contemplated the outcomes of future events. You have communicated with non-human intelligence - from soaring eagles and playful dolphins to strange and wondrous off-world beings.
You may feel as though you hold the keys to the cosmos in your mind.
But this is only the beginning.
Your beginning.
Time
Over thirty years, I have completed more than 25,000 remote viewing or TransDimensional Mapping sessions. By estimating the average duration of each session, I calculate that I have spent more than 50,000 hours in this practice. It is likely I have devoted more time to conscious exploration than anyone else on the planet. These sessions are catalogued, and over 10,000 of them are recorded on video alongside my brainwave patterns.
I do not expect anyone to work at this obsessive level, nor do I believe this makes me superior to the newest Explorer. Every session is perfect - an indelible snapshot of the Explorer’s mind and body in that moment of experience.
But time brings perspective.
Time brings wisdom.
Time reveals the internal processes that shape the data.
During my first years as a remote viewer, my results were consistent - a steady stream of what I then called “hits” and “misses.” It wasn’t until I began deconstructing my sessions that meaningful improvement emerged. Self-evaluation revealed how I internalized information, and only then did my real practice begin. Everything before that point was largely inefficient busy work.
Time and thoughtful practice are the only true constants in the TDM equation. There are no shortcuts to understanding your own mind.
Equally important is the time between sessions. Processing allows the subconscious to settle. It gives unnoticed data the chance to rise to awareness. Often, the most meaningful insights emerge during rest rather than during the session itself.
A Solitary Practice
Mastery does not come from talking about the work.
It does not come from praise or validation.
It comes from deliberate practice.
Not the mind-numbing repetition of session after session without introspection - something I see often, and something I attempted myself early on - but intentional engagement with each experience.
Learning TDM is much like learning an instrument, studying a language, or mastering chess. Progress comes through personal effort and self-evaluation. Those who excel are those who bring new understanding into each subsequent session.
This work can be lonely.
It is internal.
At times, it is confronting.
As I tell every class: you will learn more about yourself than about the universe - and you will learn an extraordinary amount about the universe.
Each map reflects your education, your culture, your beliefs, your emotional state. It tells the story of the Explorer, the experience, and the Explorer within the experience. Looking back at my earliest maps, I see personal evolution - the shift from snap judgments to layered understanding.
This growth comes from hours spent alone. Sharing data has value and joy, but nothing replaces time with pen in hand, facing the blank page.
Quality, Not Quantity
I have observed developmental leaps at several waypoints in a TDM journey: around 30 sessions, again near 100, and again near 500. These are not milestones to be rushed toward. Sessions completed hastily do not contribute to these thresholds. Only careful, deliberate work - including thorough deconstruction - truly counts.
Students mapping for less than a year should aim for no more than two sessions per week, each including full deconstruction. Sessions should last 60–90 minutes and contain at least two maps. Deconstruction should require as much time as the mapping itself.
It typically takes about thirty minutes to acclimate to the experiential location, emotional tone, and conceptual structure, which is where the real exploration begins.
After the first year, students may increase frequency, but must remember: a session includes deconstruction. Mapping alone is only part of the process.
Advanced Explorers should incorporate advanced techniques. These tools can unfold an experience like a flower, revealing layers otherwise unseen.
Deconstruction
TransDimensional Mapping was developed as a method for learning the language of your subconscious mind. The ability to explore past, present, and future is simply a remarkable by-product of that deeper work.
The techniques we use while building maps are themselves acts of in-session deconstruction. Relationship lines reveal how pieces of data connect and often uncover additional layers of meaning. Exploration questions - particularly those that ask why - dismantle assumptions, challenge metaphor, and expose underlying structure. The more thoroughly you engage with your data during the session and construct a narrative around it, the less reconstruction you will need after the reveal.
Post-session deconstruction, however, is the true heart of TDM practice.
Every piece of data, whether written, drawn, emotional, symbolic, must be examined with care. The task is not to judge whether the data is “correct,” but to understand why your subconscious mind offered it. We do not discard labels, nouns, or proper names. These are often among the most valuable clues, because they represent the mind’s attempt to translate something unfamiliar into recognizable language.
Maintaining a detailed deconstruction log over time allows patterns to emerge. Each Explorer’s subconscious develops its own symbolic vocabulary - a personal lexicon of metaphor and association. You will begin to notice recurring representations: similar imagery used to convey related concepts, emotional tones tied to specific structures, symbolic shorthand for recurring phenomena.
Once these patterns are recognized, they become interpretive shortcuts. When familiar metaphors surface in later sessions, you will immediately perceive the deeper layers embedded within them.
Deconstruction is not a chore to be rushed through. It is the work itself.
As I often say:
TransDimensional Mapping is deconstruction - no more, no less.
Data in Context
While mapping, data should never be viewed in isolation. Words, sketches, impressions, and emotional tones typically arise as interconnected clusters rather than independent fragments. Their proximity on the page often signals conceptual relationship.
Explorers sometimes treat each element as a standalone unit, overlooking the narrative thread that ties them together. Learning to recognize these threads transforms scattered impressions into coherent understanding.
I frequently pause during sessions - stepping back from the page to observe the data holistically. These moments of distance often reveal relationships that were invisible in the act of writing. New connections suggest new questions. New questions open new doors.
Mapping is not just accumulation; it is orchestration.
Speed Is a Cheat Code
Speed provides a powerful advantage, particularly in the opening stages of a session.
Moving quickly through scans and early mapping phases occupies the analytical mind, preventing it from dominating the narrative. This allows intuitive processing to establish structure before conscious interpretation intervenes. Rapid movement across the page keeps perception fluid and unfiltered.
Throughout most sessions I maintain this momentum, interspersed with brief periods of reflection. Perfectionism -lingering over sketches or wording - invites analytical interference and can distort emerging signals.
Precision is valuable.
But flow is essential.
Speed preserves access to the subconscious channel.
On Boring Homework
The fastest path to mastery is often the least glamorous.
Exploring ancient civilizations, cosmic origins, or famous anomalies is thrilling - but such sessions rarely offer the clarity needed for deep calibration. Veridical experiences grounded in known reality provide the richest opportunities for refining interpretation and symbolic understanding.
Photographs of ordinary scenes - pie-eating contests, municipal buildings, zoo animals - allow the Explorer to dissect how their mind translates observable reality. These exercises build interpretive accuracy far more effectively than dramatic experiences.
After three decades of practice, approximately 75% of my sessions remain “boring homework.” I am still learning my subconscious language, and the known world provides the clearest mirror.
Mastery is built on the ordinary.
Self-Evaluation
In our student development program, Mapping Mavericks, Explorers will encounter structured rubrics for post-deconstruction self-evaluation. These tools formalize a reflective process I have practiced intuitively for years.
Self-evaluation encourages recognition of missed opportunities: unexplored regions of the map, unchallenged metaphors, unanswered questions. Awareness of these gaps strengthens future sessions, sharpening both discipline and curiosity.
This framework transforms reflection from casual review into deliberate skill development. It trains Explorers to become their own teachers - an essential step toward independence and operational readiness.
Gratitude
Treat your subconscious mind with kindness.
Internal dialogue shapes perception and performance. Negative self-talk - “I failed,” “I missed everything” - disrupts trust between conscious and subconscious processes. It is equivalent to punishing the very system that is attempting to communicate with you.
Instead, reframe:
“What an interesting metaphor. Why did my mind choose this?”
Unlike traditional remote viewing frameworks that emphasize hits and misses, the philosophy of TDM recognizes all data as meaningful within the context of the Explorer’s state and developmental moment.
Honor your work.
Respect your process.
Encourage your mind.
Collaboration with yourself requires compassion.
Stay Curious
Curiosity is one of the Explorer’s greatest tools.
Data that confuses or frustrates should not be dismissed - it should be investigated. Follow it. Question it. Reframe it. Rotate perspective. Draw connections.
Rich maps are not those with clean narratives, but those where every fragment has been mined for insight.
Persistence expands perception.
Embrace the Weird
Outliers - the strange, unexpected, seemingly irrelevant impressions - frequently hold the key to the entire experience.
Song lyrics, flashes of unrelated imagery, emotional spikes, symbolic distortions - these are rarely noise. They are often high-priority signals encoded in unusual forms.
The subconscious sometimes shouts in metaphor when plain language fails.
When analyzing group session data, give serious consideration to outliers alongside consensus elements. Shared anomalies may indicate deeper structural truths invisible through averaging alone.
The weird is not a distraction.
It is often the doorway.
What I Am Looking For
I am stepping back from introductory teaching to focus on operational development and field application. We now have a growing body of Explorers - some of whom are ready to move toward real-world work.
In Mapping Mavericks, I will be observing who commits deeply to assignments, who performs careful deconstruction, and who approaches self-evaluation with integrity. All students will have opportunities to participate in Operational Training Quests.
My aim is to identify those who demonstrate genuine dedication to exploration - those who respect the process, honor the philosophy, and support their fellow Explorers.
There are countless problems waiting to be understood. Countless questions waiting to be asked.
Together, we can apply these skills toward meaningful impact.
Together, we can be a force for good.
