Answer:

This statement means that it is self-limiting to subject our lives and decisions to patterns that we are already used to.

Explanation:

A hobgoblin is a spirit creature known in folklores as being mischievous. Consistency is depicted to be a negative trait as it is compared to something mischievous.

Ralph Waldo Emerson hereby implies that it is a mischievous or menacing attitude to get ourselves into a pattern because it is what we have always known to be true. This pattern limits us and prevents us from thinking outside the box.

Blizzard [7]

Hey there!
I can try paraphrasing this for you so we can create a summary.
On August 21st, a total solar eclipse will be noticeable from parts of the 14 states across the country. Throughout the United States, millions will gather and see this global phenomenon as the moon blocks the sun, and a shadow is cast on the Earth. In fact, this is the first solar eclipse since 1979!
Hope this helped :D
