Katherine Clark's Birth Card: The Jack of Clubs
The Creative Messenger
A birth card is a calendar coordinate for the month and day. It is not fortune-telling and does not predict a House leadership post or committee chair.

The Jack of Clubs coordinate
Katherine Clark was born July 17, 1963 (1963-07-17). Month 7 and day 17 give solar value 24, which is the Jack of Clubs (The Creative Messenger). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1963 is unused, so Katherine Clark's 1963 birth year does not move the card. The Jack of Clubs does not predict a House office and is not a verdict on Katherine Clark.
