Gemini is the Zodiac sign also known as the twins. It is the third astrological sign of the Zodiac, and it is the sign of anyone born between May 21 and June 20. It's usually represented by two vertical lines connected by two horizontal lines at the top and bottom. However, the Zodiac Sign Patches found on The Cheap Place feature a much more artistic version: the heads and shoulders of two people standing back to back. The artwork is really unique on this Gemini Patch.
Gemini is a transition sign that shows the change between spring and summer. Because of this, it is one of the mutable signs, or signs that are typically versatile. Geminis are generally very easy to adapt to different environments and circumstances. The sign is governed by the planet Mercury. It's an air element, too, which usually stands for the ability to think in the abstract. Everything about Gemini is changeable, quick, free, and spontaneous. Because of the twin aspect of the sign, Gemini are also said to be able to multitask and see both sides of an argument.
According to Greek mythology, the two brothers Castor and Pollux were born to the mortal Leda after she was seduced by the god Zeus. However, only Pollux was immortal, Castor was actually the son of Leda's husband. After Castor died, Pollux begged Zeus to keep the twins together, and he set them in the sky as the Gemini constellation.
Looking for a love match? People born under the sign of the Gemini are very compatible with the other air signs of Libra and Aquarius. They're also somewhat compatible with Leo, Aries, and Sagittarius.
