A sage named Joseph Conrad quoted: “Belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; only men are capable of all evil." Only one man has the power in his hands to cause all evil and wickedness. Each action is responsible for the depth of a person's beliefs. A person's belief always influences his actions in many ways. Conversely, selfishness can also cause evil. There is always a story behind a man's action. The supernatural plays an important role in someone's actions. In the play Macbeth, the supernatural was an important factor in the style of the play. Among the supernatural events evident in the play were the witches, who were the most prominent. Other events were the dagger, the ghost and the three apparitions. It all began when the three witches came to Macbeth and his best friend Banquo and said to Macbeth, "Greetings, Macbeth, for henceforth thou shalt be king" (1.3.53). Regarding what the witches told him what Macbeth's good news is, Banquo also asks what his predictions are and what his good news is, the witches also inform him that one of his sons will be a king. When Macbeth returns home, he shares the news with his wife, Lady Macbeth, and she tells him that he should be king and that she wants to be a queen too, then insinuates a plan that Macbeth must kill his cousin, King Duncan. . Macbeth was not satisfied with his plan, but because of how much Lady Macbeth made him feel less human, he kept pushing it. As Macbeth was walking to kill his cousin of the same blood, he begins to hallucinate about the dagger: "Is this?" a dagger that I see in front of me, with the handle facing my hand? Come, let me hold you. I don't have you, yet I still have you. It's not you, f...... middle of paper ......stions regardless of whether the consequences are violent and destructive to nature. The witches promise to respond and, by Macbeth's choice, add more unnatural ingredients to the cauldron and summon their masters. This is where prophetic apparitions appear. The first appearance is Macbeth's head (which will later be cut off by Macduff) which confirms his fears towards Macduff. The second apparition tells Macbeth that he cannot be harmed by anyone born of woman. This knowledge gives Macbeth a false sense of security because he believes he cannot be harmed, however Macduff was not born of a woman, his mother was dead and he was a corpse when Macduff was born. This leads to Macbeth's downfall. A child with a crown on his head, the third apparition, represents Malcolm, Duncan's son. This appearance also gives Macbeth a false sense of security due to the prophecy of Birnam Wood.
