Hecate admiring the witches' potion in Shakespeare's Macbeth can be seen as her approval of their manipulation and deception. By praising their work, she is encouraging their mischievous and evil actions, highlighting her role as a supernatural force guiding their actions towards darkness and chaos.

How does Hecate feel about Macbeth?

She is the one who, after finding out that 'her' witches (the witches that she taught to do things like casting spells etc) were talking and "spilling too many beans" to Macbeth about the future, she, as the head witch, shows Macbeth the Apparitions, and she is the one who is a little more evil than the witches, as they did not try to trick Macbeth as much as she did, (she said herself that "security/is mortals' chiefest enemy") only obeyed her orders or had some fun.


Why is Hecate upset In Macbeth?

No body Knows for sure. I do not think it was Shakespeare because he write in the Iambic pentameter and this Scene is written in the Iambic tetrameter. Many people think it was Thomas Middleton since the songs the witches sing were afterwards published under his name.


What does hecate think of the witches involvement with Macbeth?

No, Hecate has no interest in Macbeth particularly. She's ticked off that the other witches told him things without giving her a chance to get in on the fun. But she is much more interested in the happy frolicking that apparently is what witches do.


Why did the Greeks think Hecate was important?

Hecate is the goddess of witches, and her power over magic would make her very important. In some versions, she has rulership over the earth, sky, and sea. She is also associated with crossroads, entrance-ways, fire, light, the Moon, magic, knowledge of herbs and poisonous plants, and necromancy.

What would be the reaction of the Jacobean audience when faced with the witches in Macbeth?

Although the people of that era believed in witches, the witches in Macbeth were very probably not portrayed as frightening. The very silly scenes involving songs and the headwitch Hecate (which were likely not written by Shakespeare, but were written also in the Jacobean Era) make the witches sillier than the fairies in Midsummer Night's Dream, and although these scenes are never played nowadays, there is every reason to think that this was actually how the witches were played at first. This may have been the only way to get them onstage in a time when people would have been genuinely frightened of representations of real witches.
