You are in no (compromised, if that's what you mean) »position« as far as I am concerned.
It's an interesting dream.
And – I may be wrong, of course – considering the fact that the year you dreamt about it was 2000, another »pivotal« year, it is possible that
there was an unusual lot of talk around you about »2012«. (In fact, you said yourself that was the time when you learned about it.)
It is quite possible that you associated the year 2012 with a sense of foreboding on a more personal basis. In other words: it is possible that it
came to symbolise a (personal or global) future to be afraid of.
Has October – not 2012, ANY year - any special meaning for you?
(Gawd, I hear myself turning into a John Edward – or Sylvia...!
)
Think about it.
And, of course, there always is the possibility that you had a genuine glimpse into what we call the future.
I just don't want you to discard any other, more mundane (but no less »special«!) explanations as yet.
