While on honeymoon with his wife [[Rose Edith Kelly]], Aleister Crowley managed to [[summon]] the Holy Guardian Angel [[Aiwass]]. Manifesting in Rose's body, Aiwass conveyed secret knowledge to Aleister which he would compile into the [[Book of the Law]], the central text of [[Thelema]]. This first encounter, believed to mark the dawn of the [[Aeon of Horus]], would have a major effect on Aleister's life and the course of the world's history for the next century.

==Chronology==
<!--
Some time after he destroyed the Golden Dawn, Aleister met his future wife, [[Rose Edith Kelly]]. In their initial meeting, Aleister remarked that she looked upset and asked if he could cheer her up by inviting her to the starry sky. During this period of courtship, Aleister suppressed his more egotistic and perverted side, acting like a gentleman around her.<ref name=ShinyakuV18Ch3Pt9/> However after their marriage, Aleister stopped restraining himself and hiding his magical research from Rose, who subsequently became his assistant, accompanying him on his journeys around the world.<ref name=ShinyakuV18Ch3Pt9/><ref name="IndexV7Ch2Pt1">{{TrackTag88}}[[Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 07]] Chapter 2 Part 1</ref><ref name="IndexV19Ch3Pt13"/>

In 1904, while in Egypt, Aleister made contact with the entity known as [[Aiwass]], using his wife as a medium. {{TrackTag}}Summoned into Rose's body, Aiwass conveyed secrets to Aleister through her which he would compile into [[the Book of the Law]].<ref name=ShinyakuV18Ch3Pt9/><ref name="IndexV7Ch2Pt1">{{TrackTag88}}[[Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 07]] Chapter 2 Part 1</ref><ref name="IndexV19Ch3Pt13">{{TrackTag88}}[[Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 19]] Chapter 3 Part 13</ref> This grimoire would form the foundation of [[Thelema]] and according to Aleister, its creation marked the end of the [[Aeon of Osiris]] and the dawn of the [[Aeon of Horus]].<ref name=IndexV22Ep>{{TrackTag88}}[[Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 22]] Epilogue</ref> The exact contents of the book remained unknown to most of the world,<ref name="IndexV7Pr">{{TrackTag88}}[[Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 07]] Prologue</ref> however the theories which Aleister brought about with it were sensational enough to blow away not just the Golden Dawn's foundational theories but also the new theories which Mathers had planned to build by hijacking them.<ref name=ShinyakuV18Ch3Pt9/> At the time, Rose was pregnant and unknown to both parents, Aiwass carried out actions concerning the unborn child's fate which would only become apparent later on.<ref name=ShinyakuV19BTL4>{{TrackTag89}}[[Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 19]] Between the Lines 4</ref>
