Gemini is the third astrological sign of the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Gemini. Under the tropical Zodiac, the sun transits this sign between May 21 and June 21. Gemini is represented by The Twins Castor and Pollux. The symbol of the twins is based on the Dioscuri, two mortals that were granted shared godhood after death.
