The moment when something you've worked toward finally succeeds or is completed.
From Latin 'frui' (to enjoy) and later 'fructus' (fruit). The metaphor of fruit ripening became the metaphor for plans maturing around the 15th century.
Languages all over the world use fruit-ripening as a metaphor for success—from English 'fruition' to German 'Frucht' to Spanish 'fruto'—because watching a plant bear fruit feels like watching dreams come true.
