    Each omen that forms is there to clear up the larger themes, as in fate and misinterpretation of signs. Before he dies, each of Caesar nightmares/omens reminds us of his impending demise (the soon downfall). Each are like warnings of what might occur if Caesar doesn't change his behavior. All in all, the omens exist to imply the dangers of failing to precieve and analyze the details of one's world.
