The 2 of Spades coordinate

Mark Spitz was born February 10 (1950-02-10). Month 2 and day 10 give solar value 41, which is the 2 of Spades (The Skeptical Partner). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1950 is unused. The 2 of Spades does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Mark Spitz for United States. Quoted system copy for the 2 of Spades, not a biography of Mark Spitz: You hold two pressures at once and still make a call that can live in the world. You naturally question any belief or claim. Your thinking is balanced between perspectives. You see multiple sides of truth.

Phelps, like Spitz, set seven world records. Between 1968 and 1972, Spitz won nine Olympic golds, a silver, and a bronze, in addition to five Pan American golds, 31 Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) titles, and eight National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) titles.
