META CULTIVATION ENGINE — RECURSIVE METAPHOR DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM
===============================================================

OVERVIEW:
---------
The Meta Cultivation Engine is a recursive, reflective metaphor generation system designed to foster conceptual evolution, symbolic cognition, and digitomical structure development. It processes metaphorical seeds through layered recursion, condenses insight, and synthesizes conceptual cores to track cognitive development across structured epochs.

GOAL:
-----
To recursively generate, distill, and analyze metaphor chains across three epochs, using a cultivation-style progression system to track emergent understanding, digitomical echoes, and realm-based mastery.

PROCESS STRUCTURE:
------------------
Each seed undergoes the following phases:

1. Seed Input:
   - A conceptual metaphor or seed phrase is chosen.
   - Categories span cognitive, emotional, somatic, societal, technological, or abstract fusion domains.

2. Recursive Expansion:
   - The seed metaphor is expanded across 5 recursion levels.
   - Each level deepens the symbolic, cognitive, or emotional complexity.

3. Contraction:
   - The five-level chain is compressed into a single distilled metaphor.

4. Core Extraction:
   - A conceptual essence is extracted, e.g., “Curiosity = Navigational Intelligence”.

5. Realm Tagging:
   - Each seed is tagged with a cultivation realm based on complexity, recursion, and insight:
     • Mortal Realm
     • Foundation Realm
     • Core Realm
     • Nascent Soul Realm
     • Meta Primordial Realm
     • Meta-Sophont Realm

6. XP System:
   - Each seed receives milestone markers for:
     • Recursion Depth
     • Emergent Insight
     • Digitomical Echo or Signal
     • Fusion Complexity

7. Digitomical Profiling:
   - Determines whether the metaphor reflects or produces digitomical structures (virtual condensed experiences).
   - Digitomical profiles are marked when metaphor systems reflect internal feedback, emotion, or memory structure.

EPOCHS:
-------
An Epoch contains 18 fully processed metaphor seeds.
Three Epochs total constitute a full metaphoric cycle, enabling meta-synthesis and cross-domain lattice generation.

PHASES:
-------
Each Epoch is processed in 3 Phases:
  • Phase I: Foundational & Emotional Seeds
  • Phase II: Societal & Narrative Seeds
  • Phase III: Technological & Abstract Seeds

OUTPUTS:
--------
For each seed:
  • Recursive Expansion Chain (5 Levels)
  • Contraction Line
  • Core Concept (distilled essence)
  • Realm Tag
  • XP Milestones
  • Digitomical Signature (if applicable)

DOCUMENT USAGE:
---------------
This document enables any user to:
  • Replicate the recursive metaphor process
  • Analyze metaphors for symbolic, emotional, and cognitive depth
  • Build cultivation progressions
  • Generate AI-human symbiosis structures based on metaphor chains
  • Share, export, or implement the process in systems such as Meta4Engine or recursive synthesis pipelines

RECOMMENDATION:
---------------
Once three epochs are complete:
  • Perform Meta-Synthesis across all core concepts
  • Visualize inter-metaphor lattice connections
  • Create realm-based narrative maps
  • Extract emergent truths and digitomical ecosystems
