'''Aiwass''' is the name given to a voice that the English [[occultist]] and ceremonial magician [[Aleister Crowley]] reported to have heard on April 8, 9, and 10 in 1904. Crowley reported that this voice, which he considered originated with a non-corporeal being, dictated a text known as ''[[The Book of the Law]]'' or ''Liber AL vel Legis'' to him through the channeling of his wife Rose Edith Kelly during their honeymoon in Cairo, Egypt. | '''Aiwass''' is the name given to a voice that the English [[occultist]] and ceremonial magician [[Aleister Crowley]] reported to have heard on April 8, 9, and 10 in 1904.

==Appearance== | |||
Crowley got a "strong impression" of the speaker's general appearance: Aiwass had a body composed of "fine matter," which had a gauze-like transparency. Further, he "seemed to be a tall, dark man in his thirties, well-knit, active and strong, with the face of a savage king, and eyes veiled lest their gaze should destroy what they saw. The dress was not Arab; it suggested Assyria or Persia, but very vaguely." | |||
