Bitch, don't kill my vibe...
It's been my experience that people look at Ni as a mystical function, because of the foresight capabilities of Ni-doms. Ni's "mystical" abilities comes from its prowess as a system-building function. Ni's main reason for existing is to improve predictability (in different situations). I saw someone on here say that predicting the future isn't all that difficult, and they used the example of "1, 3, 5,... What comes next?" I belive INTPs can predict the future with some level of aptitude by using Si, Ne, and Ti. INTP finds itself in situation X, Si recalls relevant information about similar situations, Ne finds a pattern and says A, B, C, or D could potentially happen, and Ti picks the most likely one. So, Si, Ne, and Ti work in tandem to mimic the functionality of Ni.
