Russian Meanings

As I planned a while ago, I'll continue my transaltions and after the French ones will post the Russian ones in this thread. However, I'm not able to translate all the Russian meanings available in books and websites, this will be a collection of the most popular ones and most used ones from a couple of sources.

Rider

Rider

News, reports. Movement.

This card usually means good news. Depending on the distance
from the singnificator, it may be a message from a familiar person, or from a
stranger from afar. Important news. It may indicate a post, writing,
phone call or having a guest, a visit. In some cases, it may
indicate a connection with foreign countries - cultural or business.
When the Rider is surrounded by friendly cards it's
a good omen, and shows good prospects.
The nature of the news coming can be defined looking at the surrounding cards.
In the future position the Rider gives a reason for hope - a message is on
the way. You'll soon learn about a solution to a problem.
It is also about the emergence of new ideas and thoughts
in business life. The card can symbolize new beginnings.
If the Rider has fallen in the last position, you will hear old rumors\gossip. Something will be whispered in your ear, which has already been around for a while and concerns the past. But it will still help to understand the present situation.
If the card is close to the significator, the news will come from somone close to you and
very soon, if far away - from abroad.
When the card is ahead - it's new information, behind - already received message,
at the top - upcoming news, below - ignored message, something you didn't pay attention to.

quiet, earthly happiness. Peace and comfort. Strength - the simplicity and
health of nature itself .

plans ruined, and loss. If the Clover is surrounded by bad cards, then the events which
are bound to occur will bring sadness.
In combination with favorable cards - the implementation of the hopes, the end of troubles.
Finally, check whether the clover is in the future, past or
present.
This card is also a call to abandon loneliness. Go out and be in contact with
people - it is what you need most now.

located away from the Clouds. If the Clouds are next to the Clover, expect big trouble.

Clouds

Crisis. Impending trouble.

The clouds darken the mood: they symbolize trouble, sickness, in general - adverse events. This card carries a sense of forthcoming storm, when the situation is heating up so that the smallest spark is sufficientfor the storm to start. But we must remember that the rain
washes all the dirt and clears the air. This is the cathartic value of the card. It may be that future events will help you lose unwanted ballast and begin a new phase in your life.
It may be that the tears you will cry will wash away something that has long been doomed.
The clouds can disappear as fast as they come. This makes them a symbol of impermanence.

If the black clouds are turned to the significator, the querent's prospects are gloomy. Be strong and have patience. If the bright side is turned to the significator, this is a good
omen. Unhappiness will be short and life will go back to usual soon.
Surrounding cards show where trouble will come from.

Snake

Snake

Deception. Betrayal.

Snake in the biblical tradition is a symbol of the Satan, the sin, the seduction and fail of
Adam and Eve, the provocateur. The Rod of Moses, according to his will, could
turn into a snake.
In many ancient religions, however, the snake is a symbol of renewal and rejuvenation as
it changes its skin every year. In Russian fairy tales snake is a well known character. She is usually evil, symbolizes flattery, betrayal, horror, cunning, theft, but also sorcery, beauty and speed, wisdom and strength. It is a very complex symbol.
The appearance of this card is a serious warning. There is a reason
to think about what people around you are and do. Remember that:
"Those who try to appear the most honest, deceive people. "
The snake is an enemy, adversary, rival, with whom we must be careful.
This card definitely symbolizes treachery and deceit. Be careful in your actions and conversations.
Snakes have forked tongue. So the card portends jealousy, deceit and
duality. The snake is seen as a threat. She appears also as a symbol of the sin, as it tempted the first human pair in Paradise.
On the other hand, we regard it as a primary symbol of intelligence and wisdom. In
addition, the snake as a woman means deep knowledge and understanding of life.
Carefully consider the nature of effects of Snake in your own case. Be careful in all that you are doing. You must use all your mind power to decipher the Snake as it can mean many things.
Neighboring cards will tell you more about what or whom you should beware of or how to prepare. Even in the environment of favorable cards the Snake is a warning of danger, though still distant, but very real. Don't tell anyone about your plans or successes, acquisitions or dreams.

Coffin

Changes. Transformation. The end.

Unfavorable card. It means someone's illness, death or other serious problems.
It may symbolize loss of money, home, job, love.
Denotes a turning point in one's life, which was preceded by symptoms of crisis.
Without a doubt, the card refers to the inner transformation as well, the understanding of the life cycle of birth and death. Inherited values ​​and material acquisitions lose their importance and must give way to a new idea of life and what is important.
Although these changes are primarily experienced as a burden, this will bring new opportunities for personal growth.
In front of the significator - more serious problems ahead.

Flowers are a symbol of beauty, growth, happiness and sweetness. Bouquet is always good
news in the affairs of the heart. Relationships can start between two people

fades, this card is also a symbol of time. What starts quickly may fade away quickly as well.
Bouquet emits enormous energy to the neighboring cards. Love and kindness abound.
