As far as we can tell, Macbeth has nothing to feel guilty about before meeting the witches.
MacBeth meets the three witches with lady MacBeth
Act I Scene III is when Macbeth first meets the witches. HOWEVER this could be different for different copies of the play as they are all different.
Macbeth meets with the three witches on the heath in the beginning of Act IV. They provide him with prophecies, including warnings about Macduff and Birnam Wood.
Hecate is the leader of the witches in the play "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare (Baptized April 26, 1564 - April 23, 1616).Specifically, Hecate does not appear until Act 3 Scene 5. She meets with the three witches who appear in the play's opening scene. Hecate chides them for making and carrying out plans regarding Macbeth without consulting her first.
After Duncan's death, Macbeth becomes King of Scotland. He then goes on to secure his throne by ordering the murder of Banquo and Fleance, participating in more acts of violence and tyranny to maintain his power.
In "Macbeth," Macbeth doesn't appear to be ambitious. He seems to have been a loyal soldier to King Duncan, and maybe sold himself a bit short. This would explain Lady Macbeth's belief that he would need to be coaxed to take advantage of the opportunity to become king.
The prophecy is that Macbeth will become the Thane of Cawdor and then the King of Scotland. But Banquo's son, Fleance will become the next king after Macbeth. Banquo and Macbeth think the prophecy is ridiculous until Macbeth become Thane of Cawdor because the last Thane of Cawdor was tratior as he sided with the Norwegian Vikings during battle. The next Thane of Cawdor will be the ultamite tratior as he will kill the king to become King.
The Acts don't have names, only numbers. Possibly the names you are thinking of are the names of the five parts of Freytag's Pyramid, a kind of analytical device for looking at the structure of a play. But Freytag's Pyramid (theorectically) applies to all plays, not just to Macbeth.
The first meeting of Macbeth and the three witches serve as an important element for the play and it is from there that Macbeth's decline starts.In fact the third prophecy acts as an instigator for Macbeth and that leads to his downfall.The super hero Macbeth turns into a weakling only after this.It is here that the seeds of overambition gets hold of Macbeth.Had it not been for this meeting Macbeth itself wont be thereIn Shakespeare's Macbeth, the meeting between Macbeth and the three witches serves as the catalyst for the drama. The witches introduce the idea of his being king to Macbeth, or at least make the idea concrete for him. They put fate or destiny on his side.In other words, it is possible that Macbeth had entertained thoughts of being king before he meets the witches. It may even be likely, though there is no concrete or absolute evidence of this. But the witches give him corroboration for his thoughts, if he was having them, and, more importantly, tell him that it is his destiny to be king. That's all Macbeth, and his wife, for that matter, need to begin devising a plan and putting it into action. And this plan, of course, involves killing the present king.The meeting, in foul weather and filled with mysteries (the weird sisters seem to vanish, for example), also furthers the themes of appearance and reality and fair and foul. Throughout the play, people and circumstances are often not as they seem. The theme of the supernatural is also furthered.The problem Macbeth has throughout the play with Banquo is developed here, too--since Banquo is present, he knows the predictions made by the witches, and will therefore naturally suspect Macbeth of treachery when Duncan is killed. And Macbeth knows it. This makes Banquo a threat to him, which will lead Macbeth to order his killing, which leads more and more people to suspect Macbeth.
At the start of the play, before meeting the witches, Macbeth is still loyal to Duncan. The forces of Norway and the rebel Macdonwald (whom he kills in battle) could be considered his adversaries at this point in the play. After he meets the witches and begins to entertain thoughts of regicide, anyone who stands between him and power becomes his adversary (Duncan, Malcolm, Banquo, Macduff...) One could probably make an argument as to why Lady Macbeth might be considered Macbeth's adversary as well.
There is no "goddess of which craft" in the play Macbeth. There are however 3 witches which appear early in the play as prophets who hail Macbeth, the general and prophesy his ascent to king hood.
I can. I think that answers your question.Act 1: Big Battle, they meet the witches, everyone goes to Macbeth's place, Mrs. Macbeth talks him into it.Act 2: Murder!Act 3: Macbeth is king; Banquo dies but comes to the dinner anyway;Act 4: Around about the cauldron; adieu Lady Macduff; Macduff joins MalcolmAct 5: Lady M sleepwalks; Macbeth defeated at Dunsinane.
