Publish the Obsidian vault's Knowledge folder as /knowledge (881 notes, 67 folders), with a Knowledge item in the nav and footer. - scripts/import_knowledge.py regenerates data/knowledge from the vault: slugged paths, folder notes as index pages, wikilinks resolved to site links (or plain text), callouts, highlights, and Dataview tables rendered statically. Personal notes are withheld via an exclusion list plus a privacy guard. - tuftecms/core/knowledge.py builds a concept index from note titles and aliases. First mentions on ordinary pages link to their Knowledge note (capped, never in headings, code, links, or sidenotes); Knowledge pages list related notes and where they're mentioned across the site; other pages get a Related Knowledge block. - Knowledge URLs join sitemap.xml (so the sweep test covers them), never displace existing legacy slugs, list alphabetically, and mermaid diagrams render client-side only on pages that have them.

Astrology
As above, so below — the sky read as a mirror of the soul.
Astrology is the old art of reading the heavens as a map of character and time. Its grammar is simple and endlessly combinable: planets (the what — the drives and faculties of the psyche) move through signs (the how — the styles those drives take) and fall in houses (the where — the arenas of life they play out). The same symbols run straight through the rest of this vault — every Tarot card carries a planetary or zodiacal attribution, the Tree of Life hangs its spheres on the planets, and the gods are the planets under another name.
The three parts of speech combine, endlessly, into every placement a chart holds:
