One: we are always doing something in them, we are never passive.
Two: we are always centre stage.
Imagine a fantasy where we are passive observing someone else taking centre stage.
As soon as we try, in a second or two, it stops being a fantasy - the driving force withdraws doesn't it?
To continue the imagining, that is with us being passive and someone else taking centre stage, we need our will to step in and drive it forward.
It becomes more imagination and will, then fantasy.
So the distinguishing line between the two: fantasy and imagination, is the driver.
When it is egoic or conditioned will i.e. desire we have fantasy and when it is conscious will we have imagination.
Conscious will imagines for a reason, a reason that has its roots in reality. The ego fantasizes for a feeling, for a need, that is not real.
