Yes, having the cards in your hand does make it more intuitive, but it's really just a matter of making "choice" rather than decoding and "moving", so I've put pictures of all 12 combinations at the end, hopefully that helps.
To decode C2 one has to move up and down , left and right the silver cards relative to black one. Probably having them in hands would help as it is not easy to do such movements imaginatively. I would argue that the first word in S2 is area. Now I'm fiddling with the second one but feel very sleepy. Hope this puzzle will not burst my mind at the end.
