LeRoi Moore's Birth Card: The 4 of Diamonds

In the record

LeRoi Holloway Moore (September 7, 1961 – August 19, 2008) was an American saxophonist. The birth-card coordinate for September 7 is the 4 of Diamonds — a calendar position, not a forecast of the 2024 Performers with Dave Matthews Band induction.

The 4 of Diamonds coordinate

LeRoi Moore's birthday maps to the 4 of Diamonds (The Financial Foundation Builder). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day), and the year is unused. It is not a prediction about a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame vote and not a verdict on LeRoi Moore. The card's own language, quoted as system copy rather than biography: You build a floor that lasts and still let money move when the work requires it.
