The bull is an animal that is both fierce, gentle, and symbolizes strength and sexuality.
The myth begins with Jupiter, supreme God of ancient Greece, ruler of heaven, of lesser gods, and men.
Jupiter had a strong romantic streak, and numerous love affairs, wives and mistresses. One such princess in particular is Europa, daughter of King of Phoenicia.
She led a very sheltered life and she had a prophetic dream where a woman held out her arms and said that Jupiter appointed her as his beloved.

Gemini is the sign of the twins. The third sign of the zodiac and it is also the first to have a human instead of an animal as the symbol.
The myth is, (remember, Jupiter has an eye for pretty faces if you know the history of him), Leda, who was married to Tyndareus, the King of Sparta, was an object of Jupiter’s affections so he changed himself to a swan, because he didn’t want to try the bull play another time (twice as Taurus) and managed to seduce Leda while disguised as a swan.
Next, she bore two eggs, and one was the offspring of Jupiter and the other was the mortal’s husband. Well, they were both mortal. The two eggs produced four children..now that is weird. How can that be? Well Two were brothers and two were sisters. Castor and Pollux; Helen of Troy (everybody must remember her! The movie Troy!) and Clytemnestra. It is not clear who Jupiter sired, some think it was Castor and Pollux, but others think it could been Castor and Helen.
Just so you know, Castor and Pollux are the twins!!

The ram has always been courageous and enterprising, able to bound over obstacles and rocky terrain.
The story begins in ancient Greece whereas a king named Athamus has ruled the province of Boetia. he married a woman Nephele and had two beautiful children; a son and daughter Phrixus and Helle.
After awhile, Athamus tired of Nephele and deserted her. He later married a woman Ino and a woman who is very jealous of his two other children. They also had two children of their own, two sons. But Ino wanted to plot his other children’s deaths and so it was done because the King wanted to save his people unless his children was sacrificed.
