As much as I hate to say it, it depends a lot on your narrator. Cunning usually means that he (she?) thinks outside the box or is ingenius. Does it mean "anticipates trouble"? It depends on the type of trouble.
Another way to look at it is what could you use "anticipates trouble" for that "cunning" may not do? Maybe it turns out (as the ability gets better) that you character is actually magically attuned to danger and has spidey-senses.

I don't think that it is.
