Hi Stellar,
You have a very interesting method, and congratulations on your work so far! It has been very interesting to read.
My only question is about the possibility of multiple interpretations - we know that a solution works if it produces only one possible answer, but if we can use the same method and get multiple possible interpretations, then the method may need revision because we can make the text say nearly anything.
For example, there is a well-known phrase in cryptographic challenges: "You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.". Using your method (if I understand it correctly), I believe I can decipher the same labels on this page to read "Squeamish Ossifrage: Magical Words" (read clockwise from top):

So you see, you have a very interesting method (I enjoyed reading about it), but maybe there could be another way that gives more precise meanings?
