Who feels Aquarius season most?
Everyone feels Aquarius season, but it lands most personally for Aquarius suns, who are in their birthday season and a kind of personal new year, a powerful time to set intentions. Leo suns feel it most across their relationships, since Aquarius sits opposite their sign.
