- Macbeth- Supernatural
- "fair is foul and foul is fair"
- what seems to be good is bad- things aren't as they seem
- the witches are warning us what will happen in the play
- Macbeth is tempted by their predictions and cannot trust anything he hears or sees
- the witches speak in rhythmic - chanting and spell like
- Macbeth and his wife commit many foul deeds, which are fueled by the witches
- Macbeth's life is about to be turned upside down
- "is this a dagger which I see before me?"
- the use of a question mark suggests that Macbeth is unsure of killing Duncan, unsure of the prophecies and unsure if the dagger is real
- the dagger may also represent the throne: he sees it, yet cannot grasp it, when the dagger is grasped then so is the throne
- neither brings happiness
- shows the decay of Macbeth's mind; is this the supernatural? or his mind playing tricks?
- the supernatural are trying to control Macveth's mind and lure him into evil- wherever the supernatural lies, evil follows
- "for no man born of a women shall harm Macbeth"
- one of the three apparitions- 'bloody child'
- the witches never wated to suceed and to see Macbeth become king, they follow throughout being evil and encouraging it
- Macduff is the "bloody child" and can harm Macbeth, the witches trick Macbeth and make him think that he is invincable
- Witches "vanish"
- unnatural
- audience would be scared
- "thunder and lightening"
- mystic
- creates suspense
- dark = trouble
- "fair is foul and foul is fair"
