Saturn In Libra: Ambitious Gatecrashing

PH2009112504114

This is Michaeale and Tareq Salahi, a couple from North Virginia who are apparently renowned social climbers.  So much so that they gatecrashed the White House State Dinner held the other night for the Indian President or P.M. or something. This is apparently the FIRST time in modern history that such a thing has occurred. Q’uelle fuqing NERVE.

I’d love to have been able to witness the moment they came up with the idea. Were they sitting around the pool drinking mint juleps and to distract her from eyeing up the pool boy, he said something about being invited to the White House and then had to kind of sort it? Or did they cook it up and decide to say, if they were busted, that they’d got the wrong HOUSE?

The couple’s publicist – a person named Mahogany Jones – said they had a fabulous time but did not address the issue of them being uninvited. The Security Service has initiated their own enquiry, as  you would. They were not caught btw. She posted pix of them with the Vice President etc on her Facebook page and it flowed on from there.

Okay, so this interests me as SHE is a LIBRAN.  I can’t find  his b-day as he v.cagey about his birthdate. She LOOKS so Libran, lol and i often joke that they are social climbers/gate-crashers to fab events. It’s a loving joke. But reading about this genius and amazingly ambitious gatecrash, i wondered if maybe super-ambitious gate-crashing is going to be a Saturn in Libra thing. Sort of like streaking in the Seventies?

Also, Librans, do admit: Your gate-crashing inclinations? Machinations to get onto the right lists?

And what sign do we think Mr Salahi is?  The pair are also trying to get onto Real Housewives of something or rather, they play Polo, own Polo ponies and have winery interests.

      Hmmm I thought gem at first looking at his pics – sort of twinkling gemini eyes but then i thought he too thick-set to be a gem…

      The gatecrashers had me remembering the parties that I attended or rather the ones that were gatecrashed… Not that there are many… lol.

      I do have a memorable gatecrashed moment. We were newly 18 & my aries friend & I went out for a few drinks, we were asked by her parents to come home at a reasonable hour so we did. (The Aries liked building up the trust only to break later…mmwwhhaaa….)
      When we arrived home we realised her mum had a little bit to drink too, which was unusual. We saw this as an opportunity to drink more & get out of control. We could hear a party over on the next property & soon we were hurtling fences & the next minute we were being introduced to nana for her birthday! The aries wandered off with one of nana’s 18yr old grandson’s & I on the other hand was grabbed (I mean she man handled me) by birthday nana who very much wanted to tell me her life story. I sat there for 2 hours!!! Ok it was probably an hour but still…. Lol. It always made me think twice about gatecrashing parties… Meanwhile the aries had a taste (so to speak) for it. Lol

    Sorry Mystic but I must be an dichotomy as I avoid most gates / parties at the best of times and would simply die of embarrasment before attending a gathering I wasn’t invited too. I have been DRAGGED to weddings, parties, drinks, bbqs etc by various past boyfriends without an invite and all have ended terribly. Perhaps its a self-fulfilling prophecy…? Also social climbers leave me cold. I do love her outfit though. :)

      Would`nt think a Libra would be comfortable causing a security fuss like that, being tres Diplomatic and all….but Tareq, the Gemini, probably bull-sh*tted his way in……wink wink

    Yes to seamless merging with the crowd and crashing the gate – many planets in scorpio may assist I’m not sure – helps to sleuth out possible entry/exit points. Uranus on Libra sun also means many an accidental/serendipitous collision with guest of honour/host/similar in days prior to event has also occurred in the past. Suddenly being swept off to weird places without even trying – that shit happens. Am not so inclined to party as I used to be but Saturn in Libra is def bringing more invitations.

    Re her sari – is that what she wore to the thing? Red is the colour you wear to your wedding in India. Her stylist could be doing a bit more groundwork before sending them into the fray – god knows what could happen when you’re mingling with other cultures and wearing their national costume.

      o soz whatever, you’re way up on the sari, forgot about the red symbology- doh!

        it’s a technicality but it’s an event with heads of state you know? Imagine some catastrophe over incorrect garb I’m sure wars have started over less – but def agree that frock is divine.

      If they are audacious enough to crash the white house, maybe she thought wearing a red sari was a good icebreaker.

    As a Libra, I’d say yes to party-crashing as long as it’s done with style. When not invited to things, I’ve always taken it upon myself to just show up. 90% of the time, I get to stay and make new friends. And the other 10% of the time, I get a good story to tell later. LOL! It’s not about the party status for me, it’s more about how interesting the event is. A social stair-climbing event that is boring is not likely to get my attention vs. an event that is not as hoity-toity but full of interesting folks. Might as well stay home and sleep if it’s boring.

    Foxy, you have just given me an idea as thinking i must get out more, like give socialising another chance.
    Got tired of the ‘what do you do’ & used to give outrageous & cutting replies.
    Times HAVE changed tho’, & my profession is now the new black, so mainstream tells me.
    When i give ‘bodyworker’ it used to be met with ‘mechanic?’ Or it would be ‘oh, do you do necks, backs
    shoulders, my….(.name a body part)….is sore’.

    thanx.

      LOL! I’m delighted to be your muse. :D The way i see it, the interesting people might not know your name yet to have invited you to said event in the first place so might as well take the initiative.

    Libra sun, Scorp rising – nope, I would be terribly worried about being caught & embarrassed. And worried about offending people.
    The only circumstances that would convince me to gate-crash would be either if I thought it would be a receptive (& especially interesting) group, or if there were some sort of activism attached to doing it.

    Seems like a big publicity stunt to me if they are seeking to be on a show. Secret Service saying they are embarrassed but that the couple were put through the same security measures as some other three hundred guests.

    It’s getting the coverage play that I’m sure they were hoping for. Now the woman’s hairdresser/makeup artist on CNN saying that she divulged to him the questionable appropriateness of her outfit.

    Reminds me of Sarah Palin….

    Please go away soon.

      Their pix seems to say:

      Him, whispering giddily…..”can you believe that shit, we got away with it!”

      Her, talking between clenched smile/teeth….”Just keep smiling darling, just keep smiling”..

      He does have an air of mischief/Gem about him….

        A day or two ago, news stated they won’t talk to anyone for less than six figures.

        Now, they could actually be in big trouble for the pre-meditated gate crash.

          Expert on the news just said that this is a very scary woman. A narcissistic sociopath.

          One hint is that besides her facebook stuff, wanting to now be monetarily rewarded to the highest bidder for their story, owes the salon where she had thousands of dollars of services done for her wedding which were never paid, and did not tip the salon for services rendered for this crash…..

          Besides all that, other signs are that in a pix with VP Biden, she was snuggled up with her hand on his heart which is a very intimate gesture. Also, that when she shook the Prez’s hand, she used both hands.

          Lawmakers now want charges brought against this couple.
