Detailed explanation-1: -The motif of darkness and light in this passage is very closely related not only to what Macbeth desires to conceal from others, but also what he wants to hide from his own conscience. He is inclined to hide his evil and reprehensible actions rather than accept them as something that he plans to do.
Detailed explanation-2: -This scene sets the mood for the entire play, and introduces several major motifs: the witches (supernatural influences in the play), the idea of fair being foul, and the stormy fate of Scotland.
