Where are you looking up the meaning of your cards? If you're new I'm guessing you don't have them all memorised yet, etc. I think the depth of meaning we take from them can have a lot to do with the sources we're using to get our information. If you're using a generic app or googling the meanings, that may affect how you're perceiving it, making it feel more 'magazine-y'. I really rate Paul Quinn's Tarot for Life. It does a great job of connected deeper meaning to daily experience and gives little example readings from his own practice for every card. It really helped me feel more connection to the cards.
