The Queen is a playing card with a picture of a queen on it. In French playing cards, the usual rank of a queen is as if it were 12, that is, between the King and the Jack. In tarot decks, it outranks the Knight which in turn outranks the Jack.
In the game of Hearts, the Queen of Spades is the major card to avoid, and is called a variety of unsavoury names.
