Areas of Guidance
Astrology, Vastu and numerology, applied to a specific question — not offered as a menu. Every consultation begins with your situation, in your words, before a chart is opened.

The method
Every consultation follows the same order, whatever the question.
First, your situation — in your words, at length. Then the chart, read against what you have actually described rather than in the abstract. Then guidance you can act on: a direction, a timing, a decision.
A remedy comes last, and only if it is warranted. It is prescribed from your chart, for your circumstance. It is never chosen from a catalogue, and it is never the reason for the consultation.
“If your situation does not call for a remedy, you will be told so.”
Your situation, in your words, and at length.
The chart, read against what you have actually described.
A direction, a timing, a decision — something you can act on.
Only if it is warranted. Never the reason for the consultation.
What Richa advises on
Five areas, one method. Most consultations draw on more than one.
01Marriage, family, health, education and relationships — and the turning points that fit no category neatly. These are the questions people bring most often, and think about longest.

02For business owners and senior professionals. Timing on launches, partnerships, expansion and investment; career direction and transitions; and the reading of a decision before it is made rather than after it has gone wrong.
Read more→
03Homes, apartments, offices, shops and industrial premises. Practical correction that works with the building you have — including rented spaces, where structural change is not an option. Site visits across Mumbai and nearby cities; remote assessment from plans elsewhere.

04Personal numerology for individuals, and business and brand numerology for names, entities and launches. Usually read alongside the chart rather than in isolation.

05Gemstones, rudraksha, yantras and kavach — each prescribed from the chart, never selected from a catalogue. Alongside pooja performed at our own consecrated pooja room in Powai, in person or live over video.

A remedy is not a purchase. It is an instruction.
Four categories are used in this practice. Which one applies — and whether any applies at all — is a question the chart answers, not the client and not a catalogue.
A gemstone is selected for a specific planetary position in your chart — not for your sun sign, and not for your birth month. The wrong stone is not neutral: it strengthens what may not need strengthening. Which is why a stone is prescribed only after the chart has been read, and why Richa will often advise against one.
Worn for steadiness rather than gain. The mukhi is chosen against your chart and your circumstance, and the wearing carries conditions — how it is energised, when it is worn, what it is kept away from. Those instructions are part of the prescription, not an afterthought.
Geometric forms used where the remedy belongs to a space rather than a person — a home, a workplace, an altar. Placement and orientation carry as much weight as the yantra itself, which is why a yantra is rarely prescribed without a Vastu reading alongside it.
Protective and stabilising, prescribed in specific and usually difficult circumstances. It is not a general-purpose remedy and is not recommended casually.
No prices are listed here, and there is no cart. Where a remedy is prescribed, Richa will explain what it is, why it applies to your chart, and precisely how it is to be used — and will arrange it for you directly. Where a consultation does not call for one, you will be told so plainly.
The consecrated space
Most poojas performed on a client’s behalf happen wherever there is room that day. Ours do not.
At the consultation centre in Powai, a dedicated pooja room is maintained as a consecrated space — used for nothing else, kept and prepared for this purpose alone. Every ritual performed for a client, whether they are sitting in the room or watching from another country, is performed there.
For clients abroad this matters more than it may sound. When you cannot be present, you are trusting that what was promised was actually done, and done somewhere that warrants it. You can see the room. You can watch the ritual as it happens. And you will be told plainly what was performed, and why it was prescribed.
Every ritual we perform can be attended in person at Powai, or watched live over video, wherever you are. There are no exceptions.
For clients abroad
A substantial part of this practice sits outside India.
The questions arrive at odd hours, and they have a particular shape. Whether to take the transfer or stay put. Whether the marriage being discussed at home is the right one, when you cannot be there to judge it yourself. Whether to buy property here or in India. What to do for a parent who is unwell eight thousand kilometres away. When the right time is to come back — or whether to come back at all.
These are not unusual questions. They are the questions of an entire generation living away from home, asked quietly, one family at a time.
Consultations are held over video, wherever you are. What follows is what we commit to for every client outside India.
“Distance changes the logistics. It does not change the guidance.”
What was discussed, what was advised, and the timings that matter — sent to you in writing, so you are not reconstructing a consultation from memory a week later.
Poojas take place in our own pooja room at Powai, and you are welcome to watch live. Where the hour where you are makes that impractical, you are told plainly what was performed, and when.
Prepared here and sent to you, with written directions on how a gemstone, rudraksha or yantra is to be energised, worn or placed. Never left to guesswork.
Scheduling is handled by the office. The reading, the advice and the follow-up are hers — not an assistant’s, and not a rotating panel’s. You speak to the same person every time.
You do not need to know which area your question belongs to. Most questions belong to more than one, and sorting that out is Richa’s job, not yours.
Or send the question on WhatsApp first, if you would rather start there.
