Question: In Revelation 12 we learn that our Queen Mary is already in Heaven, wearing her crown of how many stars? What do the stars of Mary's crown represent?
Answer: Her crown has twelve stars. Revelations is full of symbolism and the stars may represent:
- the twelve constellations of the zodiac (showing power over not only the earth, but over the entire universe)
- the twelve tribes of Israel (God's chosen people)
- the twelve apostles (God's church)
all of which demonstrate her power as "Queen of queens".
