I think you are confusing the word MUSTHRION with the English word "mystery" or "secret."  What MUSTHRION signified was the mysteries or mystical secrets of the mystery religions.

(In response to George Somsel's and Webb Mealy's first replies.)

I think what I’m trying to ask is whether it is possible to speak mysteries
in the Spirit. In other words, "no one speaks mysteries in/by the Spirit"
because it is not possible to speak mysteries by the Spirit. The Spirit
knows the mind of God, so how could the Spirit speak a mystery "to God"?

Of course, what is spoken may be a "mystery" to us if not interpreted, but
it is not clear to whom this is a "mystery," and much would depend on just
how that word is used here as well.
