Cosmos of Meaning, Part 13 The Becoming of Worlds

The journey through mythic, theological, scientific, and digital cosmoses shows a fundamental truth: meaning is cosmogenic. It is not derivative of pre-existing reality, nor reducible to correspondence, law, or authority. Meaning emerges through relational actualisation, perspectival construal, and collective enactment.

Worlds are woven, not found. They are patterns stabilised across time, space, and social scale, emerging from the interplay of possibility, orientation, and relational structure. Each cosmos — whether mythic, theological, scientific, or digital — is an instantiation of this ongoing weaving.

To study the cosmos is to study how reality itself becomes: how potential is cut into actuality, how relational patterns form, and how collectives navigate and reweave their worlds. Reflexivity, multiplicity, and contingency are not obstacles but essential features, revealing the generative process at the heart of existence.

In the end, the cosmos is neither static nor absolute. It is a field of possibility, constantly actualised through the enactment of meaning. To engage with it is to participate in the becoming of worlds — and to recognise that the act of worlding is the very pulse of reality.
