Philip Bailey was born May 8, 1951 (1951-05-08). Month 5 and day 8 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 1951 is unused, so Philip Bailey's 1951 birth year does not move the card.
