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.

A day or two after the [New Moon](/knowledge/astrology/phases-of-the-moon/new-moon), the first thin crescent appears at dusk — the young moon, low in the west, gone within the hour. It's the phase of earliest visible growth, when the intention set in the dark first shows an edge but can't yet stand on its own. Nothing about a crescent proves the Full Moon is coming; you have to take the cycle on faith.

That's the phase's whole teaching. Whatever was seeded at the New Moon now needs tending without evidence — the practice kept before it shows results, the draft continued before it shows promise. The temptation is to dig the seed up to check on it. The crescent's counsel is the gardener's: water it and leave it alone. This is the young moon of [Artemis](/knowledge/mythology/greek-mythology/artemis), the huntress's crescent — all forward motion and untested confidence, the waxing half of the month just finding its stride.

Energy here is real but fragile. The phase rewards small consistent effort and punishes premature exposure — things shown too early get talked out of existence.
