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.

Libra · ♎
The scale is happiest not when it is empty, but when both sides are full and still.
Essence
Libra begins at the autumn equinox, the second great balancing point of the year, when day and night stand equal and the world holds its breath between light and dark. It is the only sign symbolized by an object rather than a creature — the scales — and that is fitting, for Libra is the sign of relationship, of the space between selves, of the eternal work of weighing one thing against another until justice or beauty is found. This is cardinal air, the initiating force of connection, and it governs the gracious decline of the year into partnership and harmony.
Ruled by Venus, Libra loves through the aesthetic and the relational rather than the sensual — it seeks fairness, elegance, and the pleasure of two things brought into proportion. Where Aries, its opposite, says “I am,” Libra says “we are,” and finds itself most fully in the mirror of another. To be met by a Libra is to be seen with genuine consideration, to have your perspective actually weighed.

Light & Shadow
At its best, Libra is grace itself — diplomatic, fair-minded, charming, gifted at seeing every side and drawing people into harmony. It is the peacemaker who genuinely wants everyone treated justly, the companion who makes relationship an art. But the scale that weighs forever never sets anything down. Libra can become paralyzed by indecision, so afraid of imbalance that it commits to nothing; it can smooth over real conflict into false peace, and lose its own opinion in its hunger to be liked. Its desire to please curdles into people-pleasing, its fairness into fence-sitting. Justice, its trump, holds the corrective — true balance requires the courage to judge, to cut, to choose a side when the truth demands it. Libra’s work is to seek harmony without abandoning itself to get it.
