Macbeth was minding his own business. He was fighting on
the battlefield as any good soldier would be. In his skill as a soldier, Macbeth was
quite competent. He and his good friend Banquo were doing what good soldiers do. Then
the witches plant desires in Macbeth. As fate would have it, Macbeth meets the witches
and they shape his destiny. Until Macbeth meets the witches, he is content fighting for
King Duncan. He is giving his all on the battlefield for King
Duncan.
When Macbeth meets the witches, fate determines his
destiny. Because of the evil desires that the witches plant inside of Macbeth, he
becomes destined for the throne at any cost. When Macbeth shares the prophecy with his
wife, his fate is sealed. Lady Macbeth is determined to make the prophecy come
true.
Fate uses the strong will of Lady Macbeth to make
sure of the prophecy. Lady Macbeth convinces Macbeth to kill King Duncan. Lady Macbeth
becomes the voice of reason for Macbeth. She is determined to help fate out. Although
Macbeth has free will, his fate is determined when his wife hears the prophecy. She will
stop at nothing to see that Macbeth's fate is fulfilled. Fate and Lady Macbeth create a
partnership. What fate meant to initiate, which is the evil desire for Macbeth to become
king, Lady Macbeth becomes the driving force to ensure that Macbeth comes into his
destiny. If Lady Macbeth had not heard the prophecy, Macbeth would have changed his
mind. He tells Lady Macbeth that they will proceed no further in the murdering of King
Duncan:
We
will proceed no further in this business.
He has recently honored me, and I
now have the
Golden opinions from all sorts of people,
Which I want
to enjoy for a bit longer, and
Not cast them aside so
soon.
If Macbeth had never
shared the prophecy with Lady Macbeth, there would possibly have been no murdering of
King Duncan. The prophecy stirs in Lady Macbeth. As fate would have it, Lady Macbeth is
determined to make the prophecy come to past.
