question1) hey to the njs would you say that objects(extroverted sensing) is responsable for or the trigger for ni insights?


question2) to the nj would you say that extroverted sensing objects gives you a memory of something you have seen in the past and from there an insight?
eg you see a cup(extroverted sensing) and suddenly you you go back in memory to this glass factory or the cup sparks and reminds you of this glass factory?like does the se objects gives ni past subjective impressions?

If I'm actually paying attention to my environment, then yes.

It's more that external objects give me insights that tie into whatever my thought process happens to be at the time. Or they just trigger an insight that comes out of nowhere like a non sequitur.

I don't have dominant Ni...but I feel like me and Ni have a close relationship due to looping. And for some reason...I seem very aware of this process, so maybe I can explain how it is for me.

When experiencing Se things...like music, or another object in the outer world, they take on a symbolic quality.

A song like "Amazing Grace" will remind me of my grandma that died since I heard from my mom that they played it at her funeral (I was 6 and too scared to attend). That song becomes a symbol of the loss I've suffered, how much I love my grandma, how she suffered at the end of her life, how profound the loss was, how much she loved me, and her dying wish for me never to forget her.....

Then the emotions kick in and can be overwhelming....

That's my Fi/Se/Ni example.

It's not from a memory (or at least from as far as I can recall), more like a flash of imageries, like tons and tons of them, and it's get layered on one another so fast that it's hard to tell apart if it's just one image or fragments of them combined into one. The closest example I can think of would be similar to a scene from the movie Iron Man 1--Tony being help captive, he laid out his blueprint of different images on top of each other, and that created the whole image of an iron suit. Ni+Se is like that but it happens very fast, sometimes it's hard to tell if that's just one whole image or different perspectives being put on top of one another. I hope that it makes sense.
