kennethreitz ce93f429a2 Add Knowledge: the vault's reference shelf, crosslinked across the site
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.

Umabel

“Draw the far star near, and call it friend.”


The Angel

Umabel opens the sign of Aquarius, and its name is traditionally rendered God above all things — a joining of a root of exaltation and superiority to the divine suffix -el, “God.” Yet the angel of transcendence is, paradoxically, the angel of intimacy. Its office is affection and friendship, the warmth that binds one soul to another, and its governance extends over the sciences that measure the heavens — physics and astronomy — as though to teach that the God who stands above all things is also the pattern by which distant things are drawn into relation.

The virtue Umabel bestows is companionship freed from possessiveness. It softens the heart toward friendship, heals the wounds of estrangement, and helps those who have loved unwisely to love well; it is invoked to be liberated from a passion that has become a bondage, and to find instead the steady affection that gives without grasping. Fittingly for an Aquarian intelligence, Umabel favours the observer of nature, the one who reads the sky and the atom alike and finds in their orderliness a mirror of friendship's own quiet laws. It teaches that the highest thing is not aloofness but connection understood from above.
