Yes, the connections are usually tenuous. The players don't draw confident conclusions; they get ideas and nudges.
Four common reactions:
"Well, we have a bunch of ideas for what we could do. What now? Hmm, this card makes me think that perhaps that one dude is important, maybe we should approach him next."
"How should we approach that dude? Intimidate him? Spy on him? This card might mean "sharing knowledge"—we could try to be forthcoming and lure him into trusting us with our magic expertise!"
"We already know what we want to do, we don't need these cards."
"It's not obvious how these cards connect to what's going on, and I'd rather get back to the action instead of pondering them."
A less common reaction:
"Wow, I bet this card means this, and that card means that, and here are my five great theories for what's going on in this scenario, and each time we do anything I look back at the spread and, look, cool, we just did this card, which means this other card is actually about that other guy, awesome!!!"
