By the pricking of my thumbs something wicked this way comes The Three Witches – Shakespeare's Macbeth

Lottie's Lit

Lottie's literary thoughts about this product

"By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes" is spoken by one of the witches in Act 4, Scene 1 of Macbeth. It occurs when the witches sense the imminent arrival of Macbeth upon the ehath, signalling to the audience that something evil is approaching.

The phrase "by the pricking of my thumbs" suggests an eerie, supernatural sensation, as if the witch's body itself is responding to an ominous presence or event. This physical feeling is often associated with an instinctive, foreboding awareness of danger or malevolence.

When the witch says, "something wicked this way comes," they are anticipating Macbeth's arrival, recognising that he has become increasingly corrupt and evil as he descends into tyranny and madness.

Macbeth, who once sought power with ambition, has now fully embraced wickedness, marking his transformation from a tragic hero into a villain consumed by darkness.

The line foreshadows Macbeth’s tragic end, emphasising that his arrival brings more evil and chaos to the world. It also reinforces the witches' power over Macbeth's fate and the events that are yet to unfold.

Macbeth's Witches flawlessly solidify all things eerie and unnatural. With their perplexing riddles, alluring prophecies, other-wordly knowledge and downright terrifying appearance, they entrance Macbeth and feed off of his greedy fatal flaw, causing chaos and fracture all sense of order...and they love every minute of it. 

But with Macbeth's lust for power and his ruthless methods of securing it...the witches certainly have a point..something wicked this way comes. 

With notes of crisp fresh apple and warming spices and bewitching green sparkles, we wanted to create a spellbinding experience to transport you to enchantments, wickedness and mayhem. 

Too charming to melt? We thought so too, so why not enhance your order with a jute pouch of our botanical wax melts removing all guilt of melting your pretty ones too soon.

Don't forget to add a display stand to show off your bar while enjoying the scent for up to two weeks.
