- Twins and Twinship in Religion and Mythology

About Gemini and the Sacred

Throughout human history twins have been an unsettling and ambiguous presence. Rarely treated neutrally, in any cultural context, twins present an anomaly: the appearance from the same womb of two human beings when only one is expected. The anxiety they caused could often only be resolved through ritual and belief.
