Hey guys. Feel free to move this to Tickling Discussion if you think it belongs there, but I had to share this because it's way too appropriate. This comes from Baltimore's City Paper in the horoscopes section. For Leos, one of which I am...
"There are two scientific terms for tickling. "Knismesis" referes to a soft, feathery touch that may be mildly pleasurable. It can be used to display adoring tenderness. The heavier, deeper kind of tickling is called "gargalesis." If playfully applied to sensitive parts of the anatomy, it can provoke fun and laughter. Given the current planetary alignments, I conclude that both of these will be rich metaphors for you in the coming days. I suggest that you be extra alert for opportunities to symbolically tickle and be tickled. (P.S. Here's a useful allegory: If you do the knismesis thing beneath the snout of a great white shark, you can hypnotize it.)"
While I'm not so sure about hopping into the water and trying to tickle sharks, I would hope that the coming days lead to a little bit more than "metaphorically".
