Thanks, rie. I couldn't remember if they were fixed or cardinal, so i took a stab without researching. :-)
There is nothing simple and ornamental about occult symbolism. If you do not respect the occult traditions, perhaps you have not dug deeply enough to find traditions which merit respect. The occult traditions seek truth and knowledge, just as you do. Why disregard then so readily?
Also, what makes you think that these cards are perfect representations of Ra's intentions? My cards have precisely these animals on them, and they are the cards sanctioned by Ra.
Your own personal experience is the only standard by which you can truly assess the interpretation of these symbols. Each archetype is an energy. Look for that energy on your experience. When you find it, return to the symbols. Then you will have a better idea of how to interpret them. Repeat this process over and over and you will approach mastery.

The meaning is not so simple and not so ornamental. These cards are not mystical to their core.
