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 Sixth House is the house of the daily and the useful — the humble machinery by which a life is actually kept running. It governs work, though not the grand vocation of career so much as the labor itself: the tasks, the routines, the craft practiced and refined through repetition. It rules health and the body's maintenance, the diet and the discipline, the small habits that either sustain or slowly erode us. And it governs service, the giving of one's effort to something beyond oneself, whether to an employer, a patient, or a purpose.

This is the least glamorous house and quietly one of the most important, for it is where character is forged in the ordinary. Mastery lives here — the difference between doing a thing and doing it well, between drudgery and craft — and so does the wisdom that health and work are not separate matters but two faces of the same daily discipline. Ruled by Mercury in its more grounded, analytical mode, the Sixth is precise and practical, attentive to detail. It teaches that the sacred is not always found on the mountaintop; often it is in the well-kept routine, the honest work, the body cared for one plain day at a time.

## On the Wheel
|
|
|
|
The Sixth House is cadent, a house of adaptation and adjustment, and it is the last house of the chart's lower, personal hemisphere before the wheel turns outward toward others at the Descendant. Cadent houses refine and prepare, and the Sixth refines the self through the discipline of daily work, readying it to meet the world across the horizon. It holds no angle. Its nature is to serve the transition — to take the radiant self of the Fifth House and school it in patience, competence, and care, so that what steps into partnership at the Seventh is a self that has learned how to be useful.
