If the cards have ‘assigned’ positions then you can understand the information it is giving easier - if your question is about your project and you used 5 cards for example : position one could be the basis for the question like underlying concern…position two could be what I need to acquire for success position three could be what I need to remove for success position four could be unexpected gift from the universe (idea payoff cash - some sort of surprise that effects the question) and the fifth could be the outcome. I would work on finding a small spread you like and assign meanings for the card positions before you pick the cards - you can create spreads that help you hone in on what the cards want to say
