Chapter 1: Rising Intuition - Part 4/End
🖤
At the time, I didn’t know anything about autism. My intuition instantly guided me to remember a Holly Robinson Peete television commercial, I had seen years earlier, discussing autism. A strong, direct thought from deep within me said, "It’s autism, look into it." I listened to my intuition’s direction and began researching autism. During this process, I came across a commonly referenced autism checklist of six signs for parents of very young children. The list included lack of affection, limited eye contact, delayed speech, failure to respond to their name, unusual reactions to sensory stimuli, and repetitive behaviors. As I reviewed this list while considering my daughter’s behaviors, it became clear that Linda met four of the six criteria, with a possible fifth that I hadn’t fully realized at the time. This realization was staggering, confirming that my intuition led me exactly to what I needed to research. In that moment, I knew I was being profoundly guided.
As I began to process this new reality, I couldn’t help but reflect on why I had denied my intuition for so long. I was raised by my grandmother, who was deeply rooted in Christian beliefs. Her father was a pastor who instilled in her and by extension in me, a clear boundary when it came to anything that felt psychic or outside religious teachings. For much of my life, I viewed my intuition as something I shouldn’t trust, as though it were crossing a spiritual line I had been taught to avoid. But, after what just unfolded with my intuition, I knew for a fact that allowing myself to tap into it was not just acceptable but vital. It was no longer something to be feared or suppressed; it was the very force guiding me through this new chapter in my life. My intuition, which had led me to understand my daughter’s condition, would become the key factor in managing the challenges soon to come and throughout the next 15 years and beyond.
I knew this was only the beginning of a very long journey. Despite the challenges that lay ahead, my rising intuition marked the moment I fully embraced it, guiding me toward the deeper insights it would bring. I would face not only the emotional aspects but also tremendous amounts of research, testing, and new information awaiting me. My strength would need to grow, and my intuition would be essential as I navigated the unknown. The journey as a caregiver would require great care, patience, and an open heart to embrace the new revelations yet to come. And so, I was ready to begin walking through autism, fully committed to doing all that was needed for my daughter, with my higher self's intuition as my guide.
