The Ace of Clubs coordinate
Theresa Andrews was born August 25 (1962-08-25). 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 1962 is unused. The Ace of Clubs does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Theresa Andrews for United States. Quoted system copy for the Ace of Clubs, not a biography of Theresa Andrews: You start the new thought while it is still usable. Ideas come through you first. You're the one who thinks of the new thing, the new way, the new possibility. Your mind is restless, always generating.
