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.

Master Number 22

The dream descended from the mountain and asked to be given walls and a roof.


Essence

Twenty-two is the master builder, often called the most powerful of the numbers because it joins the visionary fire of eleven to the grounding discipline of the material world. It is a higher octave of Number 4 — structure raised to the scale of the monumental. Where four builds a house, twenty-two builds an institution, a movement, a legacy meant to outlast its maker. It takes what the seer glimpses and gives it foundations, drawing heaven's blueprint down into brick, law, and lasting form.

This is the number of the architect of grand visions made real. It carries the intuition of the mystic wedded to the pragmatism of the engineer, and it demands both in equal measure — for vision without execution is merely dream, and execution without vision is merely toil. In Numerology twenty-two asks its bearer to think in generations, to serve something larger than a single life, and to accept the immense responsibility of turning the ideal into the actual.

Light & Shadow

At its height, twenty-two is The Emperor crowned with vision — the sovereign builder who raises enduring structures in service of a dream larger than himself, translating the ideal into the real without losing either. It offers mastery, legacy, and the rare power to change the world in concrete ways. But the weight of such potential can crush: the builder paralyzed by the scale of what he might achieve, the visionary hardened into a tyrant, the grand plan that swells into grandiosity. Twenty-two's burden is its promise, and its promise is its burden.
