Morphology

hereon = here (transparent) = here + on

The adverbial meaning 'from this point/on this' is a direct composition of 'here' + 'on' and is readily inferable by learners.

Etymology

Hereon is just here + on, where here means 'this place or time' and on means 'forward'. So, hereon means 'from this point onward', which is why you use it to talk about what happens after now.
