The 9 of Clubs coordinate

Marcus Mumford was born January 31, 1987 (1987-01-31). Month 1 and day 31 give solar value 22, which is the 9 of Clubs (The Humanitarian Builder). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1987 is unused, so Marcus Mumford's 1987 birth year does not move the card.
