In this paper we focus on the Hamiltonian dynamics on the kinematic phase space of the instanton representation, in the full theory. The general solutions for pure gravity are reduced to quadratures and fixed point iteration both for vanishing and nonvanishing cosmological constant, with convenient physical interpretations. A Hamilton--Jacobi analysis is performed of the semiclassical orbits and their relation to the quantum theory motivated. We have constructed Hamilton--Jacobi functionals mimicking the classical dynamics. A main result is emergence of a natural time variable on the configuration space with respect to which the remaining variables evolve.
