No, but at one point (1990s)I was commissioned to explain one arm of the occult infiltration to medical professionals by a major skeptic organization. With a tight word count limit (LOL).

It turned out very dense. This was before WORD. I was forced to use every single word precisely.

My editor said I had a facility for teasing out connections from reams of seemingly unrelated data. I dunno. I liken it to a juxtapositional way of thinking that is partially visual. I can *see* information points scattered like puzzle pieces and then move them around so the similar ones are all together and then the link points sort of become obvious.

If you are a Christian then you will understand the Bible, Romans 12:6 - Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, and 1 Corinthians 12:4 - Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit..., and, especially 1 Corinthians 12:10 - ... to another the interpretation of tongues.

I insert this for your consideration because I share that last gift with you... although I define it as simply the gift of interpretation ... not that it gives me perfect sight, but, as much as I exercise that gift, the better I can see things. Unhappily, over many years of experience - including trying to hide that gift - I find my experience too much similar to prophets: some folks don't really want you around. 😒
