I'm not using a Waite deck, so my project has been to compare the Waite interpretations to the interpretations of the deck. Then from there I compare those interpretations and the image of the card to come up with my own interpretation of each individual card. I've been going through my deck and am currently almost finished with cups. Then I'll have pentacles and be on to the memorizing and comparison part.
I think the cards should have meaning, but not one you'd find from a book. think each card should have your own meaning. It helps, and it will also make it easier to compare with other cards in a particular reading.
