The Supernatural in Macbeth Everyone has a slightly different interpretation of the supernatural, but the interpretation we can start with is Shakespeare's. Everyone living in Shakespeare's time found the supernatural fascinating. Shakespeare interpreted the supernatural as witches, magic, unnatural and evil and expressed his beliefs in the play "Macbeth" very clearly, portraying the three deformed women with control over time and the ability to predict the future. These three evil witches with magical powers were the creation of Shakespeare's interpretation of the supernatural. Shakespeare's contemporaries strongly believed in the supernatural and most of them were frightened by it, including the king of the time, King James I of England. he wrote about it. “Macbeth” with its supernatural theme was the equivalent of the modern 17th century horror film. The show begins with a supernatural scene, where the three witches meet and give many clues as to who they are or what they have control over, "...we three will meet again in the thunder, in the lightning or in the rain ?….When the battle is lost and won….That will be before the sun goes down….There to meet Macbeth If this scene was not there, it would be difficult for the audience to understand how the next scenes or how these three are connected women can predict Macbeth's future. Furthermore, if the supernatural elements had not been used in Act 1 scene 1, as was done, the witches could not have been shown as sinister and evil, " sinister" and "evil", will later be used to explain the cause of the three witches' behavior later in the play. As the play continues, the supernatural is used more and more. Act 1, Scene 3 is the first encounter of Macbeth with the witches, and it is also the first time the audience sees or experiences the supernatural abilities of the witches. “Hail to you, Lord of Cowdor, Hail to Macbeth! That will be king from now on.” The witches predict Macbeth's future and tell him that he will become Baron of Cowdor and then king. The rest of the play is based on this supernatural occurrence. After learning that Macbeth will become king of Scotland, the play follows Macbeth's plot to get rid of King Duncan and then Macbeth's life after the murder.
