called it "Gemini" which means "the twins" and it comes from Latin. According to the mythology
of the Romans, Pollux and Castor were the sons of Leda, Pollux was inmortal but Castor wasn't, so, when Castor died, Pollux gave his life to save his brother. As a result of that, the two bright stars of Gemini constellation represent brotherly love.
If you want to locate it:
Gemini is a Northern Winter Constellation, that means that you can see it during winter if you are in the northern hemisphere. The best time to locate it is at 9:00 p.m.
To find Gemini constellation, you must begin by facing towards the east, and scan the skies. Then, you have to find Taurus (is an easily identifiable star group shaped like a “V” with an open cluster called the Pleiades located closely to its right.), Gemini is also north of the small constellation Canis Minor, which contains one bright star, Procyon. Seek out the two bright “Twins.” Gemini is marked by two bright stars that are almost side by side, separated by the width of your thumb if you held it up to the heavens (Castor and Pollux). Depending on your point of view, you can see Gemini as two somewhat straight lines connected at the top. The rest of the stars in Gemini flow down in two lines towards the hunter Orion, a brilliant constellation that contains many bright stars. You should be able to see an open star cluster at the “feet” of Gemini.
