The Queenship of Mary
August 22nd is the Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Mother.
"Mary was assumed into heaven and at the throne of the Holy Trinity the three Divine Persons received and welcomed her in a mystical embrace of eternal love, after she had bowed before Them in deep humility and reverence. She was attired in a marvelous sparkling robe that trailed behind her and scintillated with multicolored iridescence.
Then the Eternal Father announced to all the angels and saints:
"Our Daughter Mary has been chosen by Our Will from among all creatures as the first in Our favor, and she has never fallen from the position of a true Daughter. Therefore she has a claim to Our Kingdom, of which she is to be acknowledged and crowned the lawful Sovereign and Queen."
The Life of Mary As Seen By The Mystics p253
Our Lady was the first holy tabernacle of the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, really, truly, wholly and entirely present in her by His incarnation. Hope you are able to spend time this week in Eucharistic Adoration following the example of our Heavenly Mother.
