I had a dream or vision like that in 1992 that was telling me about a complete sea-change in my life. It was like stepping into an alternative, interactive, symbolic reality. When I came back to this reality, I could not speak for several hours, and was not able to tell my wife about it until nearly a week later-- and I could not stop crying during the telling. I could not tell anyone else about it for months, and even a couple of years after the event, I would still tell it with tears flowing.
For me this was a powerful dream or vision (still not sure which) that continues to have unfolding meaning in my life 23 years later.
So Chromalyn, it could be that you are not to share the dream because it's primarily for you, or that sharing it could have adverse consequences for others, or for some other reason; Do you know why you are not to share the dream? Is it permanently not for sharing, or perhaps OK to share later, but not now? Could it be shared with maybe one or two persons very close to you, or not shared with anyone at all? Or like me, is sharing it soon after the dream very difficult because (perhaps) your nervous system has gone on 'tilt' and you temporarily do not have the resources to bring it forth?
I find that my meaningful dreams/visions become 'objects' in a way, and for several days after dreaming them, I can ask them questions and get clarification of points I did not understand, Sometimes the extra information only provides more mystery, so no guarantees there-- But I wonder if asking questions of your dream could help you.
Whatever the reason, whenever you have an extremely meaningful dream, I urge you to write it down as soon as possible after dreaming it. Include every detail you remember, even if it seems small and boring or not significant. Do this because our memories are structured such that the details of stories we tell multiple times will gradually drift. We think we remember something that was in a dream from 10 years ago, but it really wasn't. If you write it all down carefully with every detail, you can look at the record later to confirm your memory. Sometimes you get insights from how your memory has drifted.
Also write down what you think the dream is telling you, if you think you know--Or write down that you have no idea, if you don't.

There are messages in those too, that teach us what dreaming means. While the dream/intent phenonmena is like an open stream of information that helps us to predict and shape our future, there are also things that teach us.
For example, I have a dream from the past I have never shared because I was warned not to. What does that mean? Why would I be so advised? I have some ideas about that now.
How much trouble have you had when you tried to share a predictive dream?
Please feel free to reply or PM me with your thoughts. I will probably begin sharing soon in this forum. Maybe even today!
