Matt Cameron's Birth Card: The 5 of Hearts
The Restless Heart
A birth card is a calendar coordinate for the month and day. It is not fortune-telling and does not predict a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction.
In the record
Matthew David Cameron (born November 28, 1962) is an American drummer and songwriter from San Diego, California. The birth-card coordinate for November 28 is the 5 of Hearts — a calendar position, not a forecast of the 2017 Performers with Pearl Jam; 2025 Performers with Soundgarden induction.
Rock Hall record

The 5 of Hearts coordinate
Matt Cameron's birthday maps to the 5 of Hearts (The Restless Heart). 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 Matt Cameron. The card's own language, quoted as system copy rather than biography: You let love change shape without using motion as a way out of being seen.
Matt Cameron in the public record
He is most known for his work with the Seattle-based rock bands Soundgarden and Pearl Jam. Cameron joined Soundgarden in 1986 and appeared on each of the band's studio albums.

Following Soundgarden's reunion in 2010, Cameron was simultaneously a member of Pearl Jam and Soundgarden. He remained with Soundgarden until its second breakup after the death of lead singer Chris Cornell in 2017. Additionally, Cameron was a member of Temple of the Dog (with fellow Soundgarden and Pearl Jam bandmates) and has served as the drummer for the side project bands Nighttime Boogie Association, Hater and Wellwater Conspiracy, also acting as the lead singer for the latter.

Birth card from the month and day. Karma cards are fixed to the birth card. The planetary ruling card comes from the sun sign's ruling planet — the signs with two rulers carry two. The Life Spread is the birth card's fixed row of nine in the Life Spread — the cards that colour each 52-day period for life. Planetary period and long-range cards move year by year and are not shown on a static page.
