A thought I had was to try and break out different types of “speech” EA refers to, in Workings of Magic, and in particular in Evocation-Contact… I wonder if any others might have thought upon these, or see other distinctions (espec not confusing diff types)- as I think this may make more clear some of the Steps listed in his works
First: regular speech, talking to (to distinguish from the following)
Second: A more formal Request (or Command, Task / Question of spirit) vs above
…
Third: Conjuration (with Authority of “omnipotence” and state spoken from) ie I call upon Parion Noble demon of recognition by the Power of Pendralion the Grand Spirit of the Second Kingdom of Flames, or I call upon (spirit name) by the Authority of “my name” (in accordance of EE etc.)
or the “incantation of the gate” from KoF grimmoire (first&third parts being a bit different from the second), likewise the OAA espec 3and4
Fourth: Incantation (although EA may use the terms in reverse order- I think this one works as something Chanted ie In-cant) the more “mantra-like” ie the Pact (AlAsh Tad…) or just “Sastan come, Sastan come…” (“gr and Mighty Power, D. King Be-Lial come… Gr & …” repeat…) so following after “3rd” and shorter than 3rd- further stepping into RaptureXrds
Fifth: what could be terms “inspired” speech (in Divination course this is closer to the Channeling, see-say, but also Questing A V & EE Abrahamelim “Confession” or summoning “the ministrying of angels” LDS Priesthood Melch. or the “devotional” part of the summoning of a God in EE & WoD
such that not thinking out words before saying (vs first 4 could be more think-say)
Sixth: An extention of fifth into more directly expressing, rather than saying “word-units” (even without prior-thought) the sounds themselves- thus “Glossalia” or speaking in tongues
which can be Eans or other tones spoken to create Enviro change,
(whether one is speaking clear “language” that one doesn’t know &/or slurring/blurring/blending, or actually not speaking “language” but just sound-Gibberish (in the alchemical-sense)
Seventh: “Speech of Angels” as termed in QAV, and indirectly implied in a few other places (like in Div Course: the direct receiving of understanding, vs via symbol-reps: whether language nor sensory, but the Knowing itself)
(once one can do this 7th type of comm/thinking- go back and reinfuse into the prior- that sense of “intention” of what is being spoken/requested or Conjured/incanted… should be enhanced if coming-from this knowing-place vs indirectly “I Am Speaking these words… planned out…”
Eighth:…
===================
the communication above refers to sent or received, not just "verbal"
And if Spirits aren’t expected to “Speak” whatever one’s native-spoken language is, might one be “hearing”/under-standing in the same way that their appearance represents and Communicates certain aspects (per social-root matrix of cultural-context): as EA mentions a bit in Q after Vs (also Bk of AZAZEL).
Anyway- I hope this might help spark some further under-standing and affect
