French term or phrase: Dans les fantaisies premières?
Dans les fantaisies premieres, il semble devenir une sorte de jardin magique dans lequel l'individu peut satisfaire ses souhaits les meilleurs, recevoir le soutien du respect social, et soit plein de fierte (pride) alors qu'il etale sa propre fertilite au monde par la procreation d'un nouvel etre vivant.

Dans les fantaisies premieres?
initial visions


Explanation:
I assume this person is initially experiencing some sort of hallucinatory vision accompanied by a feeling of physical "high". Then something else follows, whatever that is.

primal or primary fantasies


Explanation:
Agree that we need to know more about the context and what the "il" is, but it reads to me like a reference to something like the "primal" or "primary" fantasies in psychoanalysis - fantasies that are structural or anthropological rather than related to the individual.

Patrick is right that in French, this would not normally be "fantaisie" but rather "fantasme".

In the first visualizations


Explanation:
This seems to be referring to an esoteric hermetic meditation practice, involving visualization of certain places/states - in this case, a magic garden-like scenario.
