Commentary

Gemini – "The Twins" – are meant to represent Castor and Pollux (or Polydeuces), the twin sons of Leda. They are also the brothers of Helen of Troy and Clytemnestra. Pollux was believed to be the son of Zeus, who came to Leda in the form of a swan, while Castor was the mortal son of Tyndareos. They were, however, born on the same night. They are also known as the Dioscuri.
