The Ace of Clubs coordinate

Gene Simmons was born August 25, 1949 (1949-08-25). Month 8 and day 25 give solar value 14, which is the Ace of Clubs (The Creative Pioneer). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1949 is unused, so Gene Simmons's 1949 birth year does not move the card.
