Language is an expression of magical power. Thoth the Egyptian god of magickal arts was always portrayed carrying the stylus and papyrus, tools he would use for devising his charms.
It is also pertinent to point out that in Hebrew cosmology the creation of the worlds is atributed to the Word or Logos, the active manifestation of that most holy and mysterious GOD who devised a magickal alphabet composed of 22 letters alongside 10 mystical numbers wherein he hid his splendiferous Knowledge. Language is an expression of magickal power. The etymological interpretation of certain relevant words is an invaluable key for the clear understanding of our subject of study. Hence, to ENCHANT we use CHANTING, to create a SPELL we SPELL names of God and magickal formulas, to invoke and evoke we resort to the GRAMMAR of the medieval GRIMOIRE.
