I have no idea whence Azura gets her prophetic abilities from. Sheogorath is also the same entity as Jyggalag in E.S.O., so maybe he still has some of Jyggalag's insight, but maybe you're right and all the Daedric Princes have an uncanny ability to predict the future, at least as compared to mortals.

There's also the theory that Azura is in charge of rotating Oblivion and all its constellatiions and mantaining the buffer between Oblivion and Aetherius, so that would support your theory that Azura actually makes the prophesy, but I'm personally still not convinced.

Sotha Sil has something to say about Almalexia in E.S.O.; he says that she "believes her own lies" and that it's going to end badly for her.

My personal theory about Almalexia's madness is that she wanted to mantle Boethiah without having Boethiah's personality influence her choices in ways she didn't want, so she created multiple personalities inside herself that she could call to the surface as she needed. This kind of divine schizophrenia was something she could only do because she was a goddess; once she lost her divine power, all the aspects of Boethiah that she was suppressing were forced into her conscious personality, drastically affecting her mental state and ability to reason. That's why she betrays the Tribunal and tries to kill the Nerevarine, because she doesn't have conscious control over Boethiah's aspect of betrayal and rebellion anymore.

I also think that Almalexia was surpressing her guilt about killing Nerevar very hard. In a psychotic kind of way, killing Nerevar again may have been her attempt to try to banish the guilt from her mind, because while the Nerevarine was alive she was in too much in conflict with herself, especially because of all of the above.
