I get insights that seem to come out of thin air and I have learned to rely on them
5...I can pick up this gut feeling about whether a situation will work or not. I also make bets about facts, etc, there's something in my gut that says I'm right. I've never lost those bets.

I get insights into intrinsic patterns and connections that may not seem linked to the external world.
5....Yes, I call it my 'left-field', but, I can eventually figure out where the missing link to the outside world is.

I reflect on ideas and inner patterns from many perspectives.
5...sometimes the perpectives need limits because I frustrate my own self or get very absorped within my own head.

I am aware that if I am patient, whatever I am perceiving will become crystal clear and I rely on that one perception as being the data I should trust
3...depends on what I'm focusing on. Sometimes, if it's of a philosophical level, I let it ruminate, otherwise, my curiosity fuels my impatience and I go seek out knowledge for understanding on said topic.

I see things as the ultimately can be.
4...

I am energized by and make meaningful connections using visions, images, and symbols
4...I love presenting the things or figure out things, by uncovering layers upon layers. It's quite fun for me and something that manifests mostly in my creative writing or artwork, and esp. a good book. I love giving gestures to those that are important to me by keeping this above as the ideal.

I interpret the intent behind situations, communications, or happenings.
5...sometimes it's a crash-n-burn.
