Zeus in a guise of the Swan (check) pretended to be pursued by the Eagle (check), and fell into Leda's arms ostensibly for protection [1]. Hanky-panky ensued, resulting in Leda laying two eggs (swan!) from one of which hatched twins Castor and Pollux (alpha and beta of Gemini) and from another their Heterosygotic Helen of Troy, constellation of Pisces), the ultimate la femme fatale, many men died.

After Eurydice's death and her retrieval from Hades/Persephone fiasco, Orpheus was driven to homosexual pedophilia. Spurned women tore him to shreds, which they threw into the river, together with his golden Lyra (check). Zeus (check) sent an Eagle (check) [1] to retrieve the Lyra (keep the Orpheus) from the river. Vega means Diving [Eagle] in arabic, but mostly is drawn as a Vulture carrying Lyra, because, hey, how many Eagle constellations do we need?

[1] It's the same pet Eagle of Zeus who was pecking Prometheus's liver, until killed with an Arrow (constellation Sagitta, fully contained inside Summer Triangle) by Perseus (eponymous constellation). 

[2]  *Castor and Pollux* are Monozygotic (однояйцевые) identical twins, while Helen of Troy is their Heterozygotic (разнояйцевая) non-identical (different sex) sister.
