The apparitions inform Macbeth that he cannot be killed by anyone born from a woman, and he does not have to be concerned about being killed until the woods begin to move. The information received in this prophecy encourages Macbeth to “[take] all of these signs as to mean that he is invincible” (Kashihara 38). Again, Macbeth is presented with a prophecy about his fate. This prophecy makes Macbeth overconfident; he thinks no one can kill him. Similar to the last prophecy, Macbeth is satisfied with most of the prophecy but not the entirety of it, and again, Macbeth takes matters into his own
