Mythology: The story of Castor & Pollus, the Discuri
The story of Castor and Pollux represents the story of the dual nature of Gemini. The twins appear in several popular myths including the Story of Helen of Troy as well as Jason and the Argonauts.
In the beginning, Zeus caught sight of the beautiful, Leda who was already married to Tyndareus, the King of Sparta. The twins were believed to be half brothers, one a mortal and one a demi-god.
When Castor died in battle, Pollux petitioned Zeus to either let him share his immortality with his slain brother or let him spend eternity in Hades along side Castor. Zeus allowed them to share the immortality; One brother would dwell in Hades while the other would live on Mt. Olympus. The next day they would switch.

Gemini’s tend to put people at ease and can easily connect with almost anyone, regardless of their differences. They are also known to be very entertaining. I’ve never known a Gemini that didn’t tell great stories.
On the flip side, Gemini can also be mean. Their wit and humor can give way to sharp, scathing retorts and quick, verbal attacks.
Gemini is also a very busy person. There’s so much to see and do and experience. They are always on the go, eagerly anticipating the next amazing thing. This too, has an opposite effect. Sometimes Gemini’s seem flighty and scattered. They can also suffer from anxiety and nervousness if they don’t find a balance for their energy
Moon in Gemini
If the moon was hanging in Gemini over the place you were born, you will also have some Gemini traits. Socially, you might exhibit both the ability to put people at ease with your intelligent and entertaining wit but you may also find yourself cynical and conniving with a penchant for easily manipulating people.
Depending on your sun sign, the busy-ness of the Gemini moon energy may feel uncomfortable; jittery and nervous. You may have a hard time relaxing and feel you think too much.
Gemini Rising
If Gemini was entering the horizon at the moment of your birth, people may see you as talkative, high energy and very social. You may find yourself constantly searching for connections between people, events or things. You can appear to be a very busy person with a habit of multi tasking
