Castor and Pollux

The ancient myth of Castor and Pollux, the Gemini twins of Greek mythology.

They were born brothers – one mortal, one divine.
Castor could die. Pollux could not.
When Castor was slain, Pollux was so grieved that he asked the gods to let him share his immortality.

Paul’s Return to Rome
“After three months we put out to sea in a ship that had wintered in the island—it was an Alexandrian ship with the figurehead of the twin gods Castor and Pollux.” – Acts 28:11 NIV

The divine answered not by reviving Castor fully, nor by taking Pollux’s immortality away
but by letting them live together, in turns,
each trading places between the heavens and the earth.

They became a constellation.
A myth.
A mystery.

Two lights spiraling around a single truth:
Unity does not require sameness.

Like the Gemini, this sacred paradox:
one mortal, one immortal.
One embodied, one abstract.
Each incomplete without the other.
Each made whole in a rhythm beyond time.
