Crown rejected 3 times
Caesar was offered a crown(thrown) but he denied it three times. Ironically, the crown stayed in contact with his hand the whole time.

Brutus treats Portia more equally than Caesar&Calpurnia. (Public vs. Private/ Brutus ignores his private feelings/life for the public/ "honor of Rome" (huge mistake))

The War Begins
Brutus. Ride, ride, Messala, ride, and give these bills
Unto the legions on the other side.
[Loud alarum]
Let them set on at once; for I perceive
But cold demeanor in Octavius' wing,
And sudden push gives them the overthrow.
Ride, ride, Messala: let them all come down. In other words, CHAAAARGEE
Or, "LEEEEEEROOOOY JEEEEEEENKINS!"

Caesar's Ignores the Signs
Caesar told Calpurnia that, “What can be avoided who end is pruposed by the mighty god? Yet Caesar sahll go forth, for these predictions”. Which reflects in the theme of public vs. private because he doesn’t embarressed myself in from of the Roman’s citizens just because he listens to what his wife says. It also shows the believes of destiny in that age and he also believe that people cannot change their fate and god had set everything for him. (By: Sorn) -

Brutus tries to go to sleep but awakes from the Ghost of Caesar. The ghost says that he'll see Brutus at Philippi. This thus foreshadows Brutus's death at Philippi.
