Astrology and astrology consultation is a practice that has existed in the world for ages now. And time and time again, it has not just proven its worth, but also has held its ground against the forces that had tried to erase its existence. The stronghold of astrology, especially in Indian culture, is credited to Indians and their belief in their home-grown science. Today the belief in astrology is so deep-rooted in Indian society that people consider astrology consultation before any auspicious task starting right from marriage to career, wealth and much more.
In fact, this belief in astrology is what has promoted it to adapt to time and technology. And after lurking in the shadows for a while, astrology has again established its stronghold in the country but this time in a digitised form. Aka, the era of online astrology is upon us, and it is making the right noises by connecting more and more people with astrology right from the comfort of their homes.
Online astrology consultation, what is it all about?
At first online astrology as a concept – where you ditch the traditional physical interaction with an astrologer to interact with them online – sounds bizarre but considering how busy people can get these days and how everything else is going online makes the idea acceptable and practical.
Basically, online astrology is all about ensuring you don’t have to Google ‘best astrologer near me’ anymore. The firms catering the service ensure they hire the best astrologers in India for you on their platform with whom you can chat or talk.
In fact, to be very honest, online astrology sounds more genuine to us than the physical version of it. Because when it comes to online astrology, there are numerous checks and balances that can ease the experience of online astrology and even save you money and time.
To take a simple example, when it comes to traditional astrology, it is very hard to judge an astrologer for his accuracy. The one you think is thebest astrologer in Delhi, might simply be fooling you, and you will have no idea or way to find out whether he is until his prediction doesn’t come true or wrong for you, which is something that may take time.
But with online astrology, you get the luxury to choose an astrologer based upon the rating given by other users to the astrologers. You can also read the review given by customers to a specific astrologer and then make your decisions on whether you want to talk to him or not. In this way, you are most likely to always find the most genuine astrologer for yourself. So well, technology comes to the rescue and is not always as bad as our parents predict it to be, right?
Having said that, we tried to scoop out the best app for astrology consultation in India, and the winner is *drum-rolls* Astrotalk.
Astrotalk, it is what it is
And that’s the truth, the best astrology app in India for us is the best because it delivers on what it promises. Endorsed by various Indian celebs such as Mouni Roy, Vaani Kapoor, etc. Astrotalk is just 5-year old and yet is able to clock a revenue of over 50-lakh per day. The firm has grown exponentially in the past few years and all because of the fact that it is able to hire the best and the most experienced astrologers on board.
In fact, even the stats of the app speaks for its credibility. Meaning, at the time of filing this story, the app has 50 lakh+ installs on the Google Play Store, and a 4.6/5 star rating. On the Apple App Store, it has a 4.5/5 star rating. Worth noting here is that Astrotalk ranks number 10 on Apple App Store’s ‘lifestyle’ list in India.
What does Astrotalk offer?
The main service of Astrotalk is to offer its customers the luxury of talking and chatting with astrologers.

The astrologers can help you get answers to your queries surrounding marriage, love, career, health and much more. Apart from this, there are many more features that the astrology app in India promises. Here is what we observed one can get on the app:
- The first obvious offering is consultation with an astrologer over call and chat. The platform had over 5000+ astrologers, and you can choose any of them as per your liking to ask them questions about life, career, business, marriage, wealth and property, legal cases, etc.
- In fact, the first astrology consultation with the astrologer is absolutely FREe. That is, you can talk or chat with an astrologer for free when it is your first time on the app.

- You can also view your daily, weekly and monthly horoscope for free, which also tells you your lucky colours, number, time, and even food for the day.
- The makers of the app claim to be working on adding more features such as Mantras, Panchang, planetary transits and more to the app.
Is Astrotalk genuine?
Well, if it weren’t, we wouldn’t have been writing this article in the first place. So the question should be – why do we think Astrotalk is the best astrology platform for us? The answer is, genuine astrologers.
Many platforms claim that they have the most genuine astrologers but only Astrotalk delivers on the promises by devising a process that asserts the genuineness of an astrologer. How? Well, at Astrotalk, an astrologer has to prove his/her worth by going through a series of checks. To start with, an astrologer is only hired on the platform after an extensive interview round to check his or her knowledge. Then he is further trained the best astrologers on the platform, and at last, he is constantly reviewed based on the rating s/he gets from the users. None of the other astrology apps we researched follow such a fierce hiring process.
In fact, the focus on genuinity is so much that if an astrologer’s rating falls below 4-stars, s/he is immediately taken off the platform. Also, if you have any complaints about the app, you can directly ping it to the CEO through the,“Feedback to the CEO office” option right on the landing page of the app.
Further to check the genuineness of the platform, we tried the first FREE session for ourselves too. To be honest, the consultation was pretty nice. Purposely, we asked astrologers questions about our past and they were able to answer them correctly. Also, even though it was a free session, we didn’t feel that the astrologer was trying to waste as much time as possible as answers came quickly.
So we are impressed and would definitely recommend Astrotalk to anyone looking for online astrologers.
Truly astrological
In astrology, a user will trust an astrologer if his prediction comes true for him. But how to woo a user to trust astrology if he never took an astrology consultation? For that too, Astrotalk came up with a brilliant idea that surely did boost its sales besides boosting the trust of users in Astrology.
Astrotalk huddled a team of best astrologers in India and asked them to predict the future of various celebs such as Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra, Vicky Kaushal, etc.
Astrologers then predicted things like when these celebs will get married or have a child, etc. and posted their findings on the astrology blog of Astrotalk.
In fact, in the past few months, Astrotalk had correctly predicted when Alia and Ranbir would get married and a few years back had predicted when Priyanka Chopra would become a mother. All these predictions have come true.
In fact, all these predictions were made way before any news channel could find a clue about any such thing happening in the life of the respective celeb.
Again, this is yet another practice that makes Astrotalk unique for us and the best astrology app in India.
