    The primary objective of this research was to analyze the intricate relationship between the structural elements of experiences and their essential role in meaning formation. To achieve this, we have employed an integrated strategy, notably drawing on the conceptual framework of the geometrics of experience. This incorporates perspectives from cognitive semantic theories, aiming for a comprehensive analysis of the experiential-intentional process and seeking a deeper understanding of the fundamental nature of mental representations while exploring the subjective and phenomenal qualities that emerge in an experience. Additionally, the research delves into the compositional complexities between apriori and immediacy experiences in the meaning formation process. The article explicates the interconnectivity of structural elements within an experience and their contribution to the meaning-formation process.
