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.

The one who stops asking the world its secrets and begins asking the silence. obsidian-knowledge

Number 7

The one who stops asking the world its secrets and begins asking the silence.


Essence

Seven is the turn inward, the number of the seeker who withdraws from the marketplace of the senses to search for what lies beneath. Having known love and harmony in six, the soul now grows quiet and begins to wonder what it all means. Seven is contemplation, mysticism, and the patient analysis that peels back appearances in pursuit of truth. It is the sacred number of rest and reflection, the seventh day, the pause in which understanding ripens.

Its waters run deep and strange, colored here by Neptune — the planet of dream, dissolution, and the unseen. Seven distrusts the surface and courts the mystery, blending sharp intellect with spiritual longing. In Numerology it belongs to the philosopher, the mystic, the solitary thinker who would rather understand one thing truly than possess a hundred things vaguely. It is a lonely number, and a holy one, forever listening for the note behind the noise.

Light & Shadow

At its highest, seven is the disciplined pursuit of truth — The Chariot mastering opposing forces through inner command rather than outer force, the seeker whose depth becomes genuine wisdom. It gives us insight, spiritual refinement, and the courage to dwell in questions others flee. But its shadow withdraws too far: the recluse who mistakes isolation for enlightenment, the mind that overanalyzes until it drowns, the dreamer who dissolves into abstraction and loses touch with the warm and ordinary world. Depth, untethered, becomes a beautiful place to disappear.
