Satan Can Operate Under the Names
Queen of Heaven and Immaculata

Consecration vows that require Catholics sell their souls to the Queen of Heaven are dangerous because the devil can assign religious-sounding names to his vast army of fallen angels including the names Refuge for Sinners, Immaculata, and Queen of Heaven.

A good example of the way demonic spirits have been operating under the name Queen of Heaven (hundreds of years before the Blessed Mother was born), comes from Sacred Scripture. In Jeremiah 44, the Jewish exiles who were living in the land of Egypt were worshiping a demonic entity called Queen of Heaven. God sent the prophet Jeremiah to warn them by saying:

"Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You yourselves have seen all the disaster that I have brought on Jerusalem and on all the towns of Judah. Look at them; today they are a desolation, without an inhabitant in them, because of the wickedness that they committed, provoking me to anger, in that they went to make offerings and serve other gods that they had not known, neither they, nor you, nor your ancestors. Yet I persistently sent to you all my servants the prophets, saying, 'I beg you not to do this abominable thing that I hate!'"¹

According to Jeremiah 44:15–17, "All the men who were aware that their wives had been making offerings to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, all the people who lived in Pathros in the land of Egypt, answered Jeremiah: 'As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we are not going to listen to you. Instead, we will do everything that we have vowed, make offerings to the queen of heaven and pour out libations to her.'"²

Because the demons that had been operating under the name "Queen of Heaven" had been giving these people special powers, they could not break free. In response to Jeremiah's warning, they said, "We used to have plenty of food, and prospered, and saw no misfortune. But from the time we stopped making offerings to the queen of heaven and pouring out libations to her, we have lacked everything and have perished by the sword and by famine."³

According to Jeremiah 44:19, the women said, "Indeed we will go on making offerings to the queen of heaven and pouring out libations to her; do you think that we made cakes for her, marked with her image, and poured out libations to her without our husbands' being involved?"⁴

In this situation, the demons that were operating under the name Queen of Heaven were giving the people who worshiped them special powers and favors. Even though God sent Jeremiah to warn them, they could not break free because the demons had developed a stronghold in these people's lives and hearts through the sin of idolatry.

In other parts of the world, the same demonic entities were operating under different names. In the Babylonian and Assyrian culture they were using the name of Ishtar. In the Greek culture they were operating under the name of Aphrodite. In the Egyptian culture they were known as Isis. Worship of the female goddess was first introduced by King Manasseh in 2 Kings 21:1–7 after he set up an Asherah pole in the house of the Lord, and continued under the name of Artemis for the Ephesians.⁵

In today's culture, the same demonic entities continue their assault against humanity. In the New Age movement these demonic entities operate under the name of Isis, Queen of Heaven, and Ascended Master Mary. According to many New Age practitioners, the female goddess Mary is the same spiritual entity known as Isis. This entity is currently operating under a myriad of names including: The Great Enchantress, Goddess of Magic, Queen of Heaven, the Immaculata, Ascended Master Mary, Queen of the Gods, Star of the Sea, Goddess of Love, and Our Lady of Light.⁶

To see a list of all the demonic entities that New Age practitioners communicate with, you can search the Internet using the following keywords: "list of New Age Spirit Guides." Here you will see many of the same religious-sounding names that are being used at false apparition sites around the world. For example, the Ascension Now website and the Ascension Research Center both use the name of "Immaculata" as one of their Ascended Masters. The Militia of the Immaculata consecration vow also addresses an entity called "Immaculata, Queen of Heaven."⁷ The Saint Louis de Montfort vow addresses an entity called "Queen of Heaven and earth, to whose empire everything is subject."⁸ Father Gobbi's Marian Movement of Priests invokes an entity called the "Virgin of Fatima, Mother of Mercy, Queen of Heaven and Earth, Refuge of Sinners."⁹

After studying how the New Age movement works, it's easy to discern that consecration vows are dangerous, open doors to the demonic. The Catholic Church has never granted permission for the faithful to sell their souls to the Immaculata or to channel messages from the spirit realm. According to the Catechism in sections 2663–2696, the faithful can pray "in communion with the saints" to God. We can also ask for the saints' intercession, but when Catholics cross the line and participate in New Age techniques, disastrous results can be expected.
