The constellation Gemini brought to life! ♊ According to Greek mythology, the constellation represents the immortal Pollux and the mortal Castor, twin sons of Queen Leda of Sparta and two fathers – the human king Tyndareus and the mighty Zeus. When Castor died in a battle, Pollux begged his father Zeus to give Castor immortality, and he did. So now they shine together eternally – a celestial tale of brotherhood. 🌌 To spot Gemini, look for the two bright stars that make up the heads of the broth
