The original ELI5s were books, and it sounds like you could use a book right about now. Horoscope Symbols is a great starting point to learn more deeply about the symbols themselves and why all these things mean what they mean. This book is a little more beginner friendly, also a great starting point when you're new and wanting to understand how it all works.
Books that describe the what rather than the why are often referred to as cookbooks, where you just look up a planet in a sign or house or an aspect, and you get a paragraph explanation. These are notoriously broad and definitely should not be the end of your studies, but they can be good starting points for seeing what you read about in the "why" books in action. Planets in Youth is probably my favorite cookbook for this. It's supposedly geared towards children and developing youths, but I've found it relevant and accurate across the board as far as age goes. Planets in Transit is the legendary cookbook for transits, and while I wouldn't start with this one, it's definitely worth having on your bookshelf.
Also, check out the resources in the FAQ post. That section is specifically designed to offer online resources for people in your position who want to learn some basics.
If you are interested, I highly recommend this book as a good primer. Astrology: Understanding the Birth Chart https://www.amazon.com/dp/1567180884/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_0xvRAbAXVGVRM
