“Queen of heaven” is a metaphor. One of our titles for Jesus is Christ the King. Jesus is King of Heaven; Mary is Queen of heaven, or if you bother to look for a Biblical source, Queen Mother. In ancient Israel, the king might have a favorite wife but only one mother. The woman at the Court who counted, at least in the southern kingdom, was the Queen Mother.

Galatians 1:7,8 "there are some who want to trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed."

Read it over and over. Understand it. Flee Catholicism and leave the Popes, statues, rituals and extra-Biblical teachings behind. I know they comfort you. They are alluring and appeal to the emotions. Flee and depend on the Lord. Look to Him without pomp and colors and rituals.

...Mary is Queen of heaven...

But Everyone knows that MAry is dead and in her grave, awaiting the last trump as are ALL those who have died in Christ.
