The Jack of Diamonds coordinate
Marilyn Horne was born January 16, 1934 (1934-01-16). Month 1 and day 16 give solar value 37, which is the Jack of Diamonds (The Successful Messenger). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1934 is unused, so Marilyn Horne's 1934 birth year does not move the card.

Marilyn Horne in the public record
She specialized in roles requiring beauty of tone, excellent breath support, and the ability to execute difficult coloratura passages. She is a recipient of the National Medal of Arts and the Kennedy Center Honors, and has won four Grammy Awards. Marilyn Berneice Horne was born in Bradford, Pennsylvania, one of the four children of Bentz and Berneice Horne. Her parents were both politicians, with her mother serving as city assessor of the Fifth Ward and her father appointed as McKean County assessor. Bentz was also a semi-professional singer and, noticing Marilyn's talent, sought to move the family to a place where she could have access to professional vocal training and more opportunities to perform. Along with her older brother Richard and sister Gloria, the family moved to Long Beach, California when Marilyn was 11. Her younger brother, Jay, was born after the move to Long Beach, in 1949. At age 13, Horne became founding member of the newly formed Roger Wagner Chorale along with Marni Nixon, Paul Salamunovich, Salli Terri and Harve Presnell.
