Hi, all. A thought occured to me, and I searched it on the Downs, but nothing turned up. So I thought I'd bring it up.
It's known that Elrond, Arwen, Galadriel, etc. had foresight, but my question is: does Aragorn have foresight (even if it is limited)?
What makes me ask this question is a statement he makes to Gandalf before they go into the Mines (emphasis mine):
Quote:

"You followed my lead almost to disaster in the snow, and have said no word of blame. I will follow your lead now--if this last warning does not move you. It is not of the Ring, or of us others that I am thinking now, but of you, Gandalf. And I say to you: if you pass the doors of Moria, beware!"

And then, when Gandalf returns, he makes a comment about how didn't he warn Gandalf to not go into Moria? (I can't give an exact quote because I can't seem to find it...but I know it's in the chapter called "The White Rider" [The Two Towers])
There are also several other moments where he seems to have foresight, but I don't have the time to look them up at the moment.
If Aragorn DOES have a limited amount of foresight, is it because he is descended from Numenorian kings? (And possibly because he has Elven blood?)
What are your thoughts on this?
