The words Witch and Witchcraft are made by the Vatican around 1600 to label religious and ritual practices other than Christianity. The old Religion and the Craft which is now known as Witchcraft is the ancient Pagan Nature Worship, and the shamanic Magic. The meaning of the word Witchcraft depends on what is meant by who says it.
Witches were not "created" in the traditional sense. The concept of witches as individuals using supernatural powers to harm others evolved over time through folklore, myth, and societal beliefs. The idea of witches often served as a scapegoat for societal problems, religious fears, and power struggles.
Patriarchal societies whose members perceived certain women to have too much confidence or assertivenes (for their station in the community) branded such women as witches, ascribing their "powers" to supposedly dark and destructive forces.
The stereotype of a witch has roots in early modern Europe, particularly during the witch hunts of the 16th and 17th centuries. Women who did not conform to society's norms, such as those who lived alone or practiced herbal healing, were often accused of witchcraft. These stereotypes were perpetuated through folklore, literature, and religious beliefs.
While the witches' prophecies may influence Macbeth's decisions, ultimately it is Macbeth himself who chooses to act on those prophecies. His ambition and willingness to pursue power lead him to take actions that shape his future.
