Humanity in the Becoming of Worlds: Series Conclusion — The Becoming of Cosmos

Across this series, we have traced how possibility itself is cosmogenic. Myth, theology, and science each provided symbolic architectures that placed humanity within larger orders — narrating our origin, delimiting our destiny, and framing the scope of what could be thought or done. But when seen relationally, these architectures are not eternal truths; they are cuts in possibility, perspectival construals that weave a cosmos of meaning and action.

The becoming of human possibility is inseparable from the becoming of cosmos. To live as human is always already to inhabit a world, a patterned field of potential and actual that orients action and meaning. The mythic cosmos situates us within cycles and stories; the theological cosmos binds us under law and providence; the scientific cosmos maps us into laws and observers. Each construal opens, and at the same time closes, a domain of possibility.

Reflexivity marks a decisive turn. Once we see these architectures as constructs, not absolutes, possibility no longer appears as a pre-given horizon but as a field of negotiation. Cosmos itself becomes mutable, plural, contested — the unfolding of possibility in relation rather than the decree of any final order.

To study possibility, then, is to study the very becoming of worlds. Human action is not simply situated within cosmos but participates in its ongoing construal. Meaning, power, and existence converge in this co-individuation: the weaving of cosmos through cuts in possibility.

The cosmos of possibility is not behind us, nor above us, nor waiting at the end of time. It is here, unfolding — in every symbolic act, every collective negotiation, every perspectival cut that draws actuality from the open field of the possible.
