Illuminating human relationship chemistry via the CROWNLINE Method
Michael Krems
July 27, 2024
Welcome to the 30th issue of Suited & Connected©! 😊😊😊
CROWNLINE Method, founded by Todd Anthony Person, examines individual birthdays and leverages the 52 playing cards deck to illuminate human relationship chemistry. The CROWNLINE Method fuses mathematics, numerology, astrology, neuroscience and psychology.
The deck of playing cards was originally used by several ancient civilizations as a calendar: there are 52 cards representing the 52 weeks in the year. There are (4) suits representing the four seasons. Hearts representing Spring, Clubs representing Summer, Diamonds representing Fall and Spades representing Winter. Each season has (13) weeks, and each suit has thirteen cards. There are (12) Face cards and there are twelve months and (12) astrological signs. If you add up all the Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds, and Spades with Ace being (1) and King being (13) you get 364. Add December 31st being the day of 1 ¼ and you now get 365 ¼ days which is an entire year.
The 12 astrological signs, or zodiac signs, are associated with different planets, elements, and symbols, and are said to bestow people with certain personality traits. It shows who and what turns us on and why. Mars is the planet associated with action, libido, assertion and aggression. When expectations for sensual affections are not reciprocated, there exists a recipe for relationship discord, impediment to longevity, and ultimate fracture.
This 30th issue of Suited & Connected© we examine a pattern of human relationship chemistry in which the primary attraction between the couple is a “Spiritual Mars Connection” which is defined by same suit cards that are 3 numbers apart (e.g. 4 Hearts to 7 Hearts). This pattern often shows a relationship predicated on sexual attraction with not much else to glue the couple together. The lack of true intimate bonding can result in one or both of the individuals seeking fulfillment outside of the relationship.
The following couples breakups are assessed via the CROWNLINE Method:
Alex Rodriguez, & Jennifer Lopez
Bill Gates & Melinda Gates
Chris Rock & Malaak Compton-Rock
Donald Sterling & Shelly Sterling
John Phillips & Michelle Phillips
Alex Rodriguez aka A-Rod & Jennifer Lopez aka J-Lo
Despite their non-traditional beginnings, J.Lo and A-Rod's relationship was full of milestone moments, from their red carpet debut at the Met Gala to fairy tale engagement. It was no secret that these two were crazy about each other. On their one-year anniversary, the singer publicly declared her love before performing "Us" at a concert. Clubs and Hearts can explain a chemistry and attraction for one another — see below the explanation of Mars in their birth and astrological charts assessment in which sex drive and urges confounded the relationship.
Unlike the trajectory of traditional Hollywood romances, cultural icon Jennifer Lopez and former Major League Baseball star Alex Rodriguez's relationship was written in the stars from the very start. Their love story began when J.Lo signed an autograph for the young baseball pro in 1999. They crossed paths again in 2005 at a Yankees Game, but both were married at the time. Cut to 12 years later, and J-Rod officially became an item.
Alex Rodriguez, born July 27, is Ace of Clubs/7Hearts; Jennifer Lopez, born July 24, is 4Clubs/10Hearts. A double mars pattern — cards being three positions apart — can be seen in Ace of Clubs to 4Clubs and 7Hearts to 10 of Hearts. A double mars pattern reflects sensual passion galore, but a fast burn rate to burn-out.two

Donald Sterling & Shelly Sterling
Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, center, and his wife Shelly attend an National Basketball Association (NBA) basketball game in 2008. Sterling would be required by the NBA to sell the Clippers and would be banned for life from attending NBA games as punishment for racist comments captured on tape. Sterling was the longest-tenured owner in the NBA when his companion, V. Stiviano, recorded him ranting about her showing up at Clippers games with African-American men. He admonished her not to bring her black friends to any more games — a broadside that Sterling later tried to explain away by saying he was jealous seeing younger men with his paramour.
The astrological ruling cards of Donald Sterling,and his wife Shelly are three cards apart — 4Spades and 7Spades — an alignment indicative of a Past Life Mars’ connection.

The wife of Sterling, Shelly, alleged in legal filings that her husband met Stiviano at the 2010 Super Bowl in Miami, and would give Stiviano a Ferrari, two Bentleys, a Range Rover, and a $1.8 million duplex, not to mention more than $250,000 cash. Donald and Shelly Sterling remain married.

John Phillips & Michelle Phillips
The Mamas & the Papas — from left Michelle Phillips, Ellen Naomi Cohen, known professionally as Cass Elliot, Denny Doherty, and John Phillips — was a folk-rock vocal group which recorded and performed from 1965 to 1968. The group was a defining force in the music scene of the counterculture of the 1960s. .
John Phillips, born, Aug. 30, is 9Hearts/7Clubs; Michelle Phillips, born June 4, is King of Diamonds/6Hearts; Denny Doherty, born Nov. 29, is 4Hearts/6Clubs; and Cass Elliot, born Sept. 19, is 5Clubs/3Diamonds. John Phillips and Michelle Phillips card alignment shows an inverted Mars connection — first and second cards 3 number positions from each other.
The song I Saw Her Again was written by John Phillips, the leader of the Mamas And The Papas, about the affair between his wife, Michelle Phillips (a Mamas And Papas member), and Denny Doherty (also a Mamas And Papas member), which ultimately led to Michelle Phillips' unceremonious dismissal from the band and John and Michelle's divorce. Ironically enough, Doherty received a songwriting credit. The sessions for this album must have been as uncomfortable as were the sessions when Fleetwood Mac was recording the Rumours album 10 years later and the personal relationships in that band were imploding.
"I Saw Her Again" was inspired by Denny Doherty's brief affair with Michelle Phillips, then married to John Phillips, which, combined with an affair between Michelle Phillips and Gene Clark- born Nov.17 (3Clubs/7Clubs) of The Byrds resulted in the brief expulsion of Michelle from the group. Notice that John Phillips and Gene Clark both had the identical second card (7Clubs).
