The legend for the Gemini (pronounced: jem-in-i) constellation is this:

There were twins named Castor and Pollux. They were only half brothers because they had the same mother but different fathers. They had a sister named Helen. They went to fight in the Trojan war so that Helen could return to her husband. In battle, Castor died. Pollux was devestated. He asked his father Zeus (Jupiter) if he could share his immorality with Castor. Zeus agreed and the brothers were reunited as the Gemini constellation.
