Why Do Sanctuary Gemini Always Rebel? Divine Manipulation or Zodiac Curse? The Shocking Truth Behind the Godly Conspiracies
The Eternal Enigma of Gemini’s Rebellion
Throughout the ages of the Sanctuary, the Gemini Gold Saints have consistently been at the center of mysterious rebellions that have shaken the very foundations of Athena’s domain. While many attribute this pattern to the dual nature of the Gemini zodiac sign, a deeper investigation reveals a far more complex celestial conspiracy involving powerful deities manipulating events from behind the scenes.
The Three Eras of Gemini Betrayal
Lost Canvas Era: The Time God’s Vendetta
In the Lost Canvas timeline, the Gemini brothers Aspros and Defteros represented the perfect example of sibling harmony and dedication. Their bond, however, became the target of Kagaho, a demigod and brother to the God of Time who sought revenge against the heavenly realm. Kagaho cunningly planted dark thoughts in Aspros’s mind, twisting his noble intentions into destructive ambition. The tragedy culminated in Defteros being forced to strike down his own brother, though he remained under divine influence throughout the ordeal.
Next Dimension: The Divine Experiment
The ND era presented Cain and Abel, Gemini twins sharing a single body with opposing moral compasses—a complete reversal of their biblical namesakes. This unnatural existence was revealed to be the malicious work of an unspecified deity’s “prank,” creating a being torn between inherent goodness and corruption. The situation required surgical intervention by Odysseus to separate the conflicting entities, raising questions about divine responsibility for human suffering.
Original Saga: The Evil God’s Corruption
The most famous Gemini rebellion involved Saga, who transformed from a noble Gold Saint into the false Pope after his hair mysteriously turned white. Post-Sanctuary War investigations by Shion revealed the truth: the evil god Ker had implanted a corrupted soul within Saga’s body. Discovered between two Gemini souls that fell from heaven, this evil spirit became the instrument of divine manipulation that nearly destroyed the entire Sanctuary.
The Pattern of Divine Intervention
Each Gemini incident follows a consistent pattern of celestial interference. Whether it’s Kagaho manipulating brotherly bonds, Ker implanting corrupted souls, or unknown gods creating morally conflicted beings, the common denominator remains divine meddling in human affairs. The Sanctuary’s structural vulnerabilities, particularly in papal succession protocols, created opportunities for these interventions to take root and flourish.
The Innocence of the Gemini Saints
Contrary to popular belief, the Gemini Saints consistently demonstrated noble intentions before their corruption. Aspros initially sought to protect his brother, while Saga maintained impeccable integrity upon becoming a Gold Saint. These were not inherently rebellious individuals but victims of divine manipulation—pawns in celestial conflicts far beyond their understanding or control.
Modern Implications and Unresolved Questions
The Omega era introduced Gemini as sisters, though their story remains underdeveloped compared to previous generations. This evolution suggests an attempt to break the cycle, though the fundamental issue of divine manipulation persists. The pattern clearly indicates that Gemini’s rebellious reputation stems not from astrological destiny but from being targeted by gods engaged in their own conflicts.
Conclusion: Beyond Zodiac Stereotypes
The Gemini Saints’ history of rebellion reveals a profound truth about the relationship between gods and humanity in the Saint Seiya universe. These events represent not zodiac curses but systematic divine abuse of power, where human lives become collateral damage in celestial disputes. For the Sanctuary to achieve lasting stability, it must address not only its earthly governance but also establish protections against heavenly interference. The Gemini story serves as a powerful reminder that true strength lies not in avoiding manipulation but in recognizing and resisting it, regardless of celestial origin.
