Need help interpreting

[Tarritqueen]

Hey, I am trying to learn gypsy playing cards techniques and was doing a reading on myself about my my general future. I am very confused so I need help. 
I did 16 card reading with my inner circle including: 

Bouquet     -           Dog           -              Snake 

                 Mice -   rose   -      tree      

Whip        Cloud - woman - Cupid         Book

                 Honor - Bear - Lion 

Ship                        Wine                           Bird

 

I see in my near future I might suffer small loss (mice) related to my romantic life (rose)  and health (tree) leading me to have uncertainty (cloud) about men who are attracted to me (Cupid) I might receive some shocking news (lion) and that I correctly speculated (bears) bringing me recognition (honor) and happiness and recovery of what I lost (white part of cloud facing the women +mice being near) 
 

for my far future, I see someone I trusted (dog) betraying me (snake) but I would uncover (book) who it is and suffer some misfortune (bird) as a result, but I will be engaging is social networking (wine) and international trade (ship) that might lead to some loss (whip) but eventually it will bring profit and happiness (bouquet). 
 

I don’t feel right though.

I don't know this spread. Are there fixed meanings for the positions?

[gregory]

Not exactly. It's the "short spread"

where the inner circle is the internal, the more immediate/important and the hardest to change and the outer circle the influences that are less significant but easier to change.

 

Have the deck; couldn't face learning another new thing...

[Arania]

Ah ok. I don't have the cards anymore and never had any instructions.

 

The cards in this deck can be very literal in two ways, any court cards regardless of image can also represent people. The dog could represent a real dog etc.

 

I would see the mice as something gnawing at you, possibly worry about health or relationship. Which also ties in with cloud and cupid. The bear tends to signify slow movement, taking time to think things over. If this is more about romance it might be the discovery that a man close to you is not who you think he is, and the thinking it over leads to a (shock) recognition that you'd have to look elsewhere. The lion tends to be suprise more than shock.

 

If i get the spread right, the cards around your situation are more what lead to the current situation, but if you go by long term, I would rather think the snake is for the trouble someone close to you will get, probably family, and you'll be able to be there for them.

 

I'd see the birds as a gossiping female (the wine) figure which will move out of your life (ship). The whip can also mean to snap out of something and get back to what is important.
