dc.descriptionWe propose a method to recover the time variable and the classical evolution of the Universe from the minisuperspace wave function of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. Defining a Hamilton-Jacobi characteristic function $W$ as the imaginary part of the $\ln Ψ$ we can recover the classical solution, and quantum corrections. The key idea is to let the energy of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation vanish only after the semiclassical limit is taken.
