Queen of Heaven was a title given to a number of ancient sky goddesses in the ancient Mediterranean and Near East, in particular Anat, Isis, Innana, Astarte, Hera and possibly Asherah (by the prophet Jeremiah).
This Catholic/non-christian teaching is expressed in the papal encyclical Ad Caeli Reginam, issued by Pope Pius XII. It states that Mary is called Queen of Heaven because her son, Jesus Christ, is the king of Israel and heavenly king of the universe; indeed, the Davidic tradition of Israel recognized the mother of the king as the Queen Mother of Israel. The Eastern Orthodox Churches do not share the Catholic dogma, but themselves have a rich liturgical history in honor of Mary.
WHO/WHAT REALLY IS THE QUEEN OF HEAVEN?
According to the scriptures below, the queen of heaven is clearly a mother goddess (mother of god) and has no Christian link. It has been in existence way before Mary was born. Pagan Roman traditions were carried over in papal rome and stuck with the roman catholic system ever since. 1 Timothy 2:5 "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;"
Jeremiah 7
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the
fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to
the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto
other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
Jeremiah 44
17 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth
out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of
heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we
have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our
princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of
Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were
well, and saw no evil.
18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of
heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have
wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and
by the famine.
There is most certainly a King of Heaven, the Lord of hosts. He alone rules in heaven. He does not share His rule or His throne or His authority with anyone. The idea that Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the queen of heaven has no scriptural basis whatsoever. Instead, the idea of Mary as the queen of heaven stems from proclamations of priests and popes of the Roman Catholic Church. While Mary was certainly a godly young woman greatly blessed in that she was chosen to bear the Savior of the world, she was not in any way divine, nor was she sinless, nor is she to be worshipped, revered, venerated, or prayed to. All TRUE followers of the Lord God refuse worship. Peter and the apostles refused to be worshipped
(Acts 10:25–26; 14:13–14). Even the holy angels refuse to be worshipped (Revelation 19:10; 22:9). The response is always the same: “Worship God!” To offer worship, reverence, or veneration to anyone but God is nothing short of idolatry. Mary’s own words in her “Magnificat” (Luke 1:46–55) reveal that she never thought of herself as “immaculate” or deserving of veneration; on the contrary,
she was relying on the grace of God for salvation: “And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.” Only sinners need a savior, and Mary recognized that need in herself. Acts 1:14 "These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren." If Mary rejected Christ and didn't continue in the faith to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost, she like every other person who rejects Christ will end in the lake of fire.
Furthermore, Jesus Himself issued a mild rebuke to a woman who cried out to Him, "Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you" (Luke 11:27), replying to her, "Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it." By doing so, He curtailed any tendency to elevate Mary as an object of worship. He could certainly have said, “Yes, blessed be the Queen of Heaven!” But He did not. He was affirming the same truth that the Bible affirms—the only biblical references to the “queen of heaven” refer to the goddess of an idolatrous, false religion.
The apparitions which millions of catholics claim to have seen of Mary was actually of a goddess which they choose to call Mary. Mary the mother of Jesus Christ, and every dead saint is still in the grave, waiting for the "Catching Away" Rapture as we know it. BEWARE OF DOGS!!! Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

19 And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and
poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes
to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her,
without our men?
25 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel,
saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your
mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will
surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn
incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink
offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows,
and surely perform your vows.
