In 2.2: Caesar argues with his wife Calphurnia because Calphurnia dreamt about Caesar dying. Because of these dreams, she doesn't allow Caesar to go to the senate meeting because she doesn't want him to die and she has observed too many signs that predict his death. Romans were very superstitious, and believed their dreams would come true. Caesar does as she wishes, and stays home. However, Decius appears and persuades Caesar to go to the senate meeting. He thinks that if Caesar does not appear at the meeting, the Senate might change their mind about crowning Caesar king. Does Decius care about Caesar? Caesar shows by neglecting the omens that he thinks he is more powerful than the gods. Caesar is too used to his power, which will probably result in his death.
In 2.3-2.4, Shakespeare describes others that fear a conspiracy against Caesar. Adding Artemidorus was a good move by Shakespeare, though his appearance confused me quite a bit. I thought I had missed this guy in previous chapters because he appeared out of nowhere. Maybe he's is one of the conspirators that has changed his mind at the last second. The letter sure seemed so, as it included the conspirators' names.
