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.

What you were before you learned to explain yourself.
Essence
If the Sun is who a person becomes, the Moon is who they already are when no one is watching. It names the inner life of feeling — instinct, mood, the body’s memory of comfort and fear. The Moon is the archive of everything the self absorbed before it had words, and it responds to the present largely through the residue of the past. Where the Sun radiates, the Moon receives; it is the reflective surface on which experience leaves its tides.
The Moon governs the mother and the mothered, the need to be held and the impulse to hold. Like the shifting Selene it moves in cycles, waxing and waning through the month and through the moods of a single day, teaching that the psyche is not a fixed thing but a rhythm. To know one’s Moon is to know what one needs in order to feel safe, nourished, and at home in one’s own skin — the quiet undertow beneath the bright will of the Sun.

In the Chart
A well-placed Moon gives emotional fluency — a person at ease with their own feelings, able to soothe themselves and to comfort others, rooted in a sense of belonging. When the Moon is afflicted, the inner tide runs rough: moods that arrive like weather with no forecast, a hunger for security that never quite fills, old wounds re-lived as if they were happening now. The work is to make peace with the changing self and to learn what genuinely nourishes rather than merely numbs.
