Zulema L'Astròloga (1190 – after 1229), was a Moorish astronomer. A member of the nobility, she was living in Madina Mayurqa [es], now part of Palma de Mallorca, in 1229. She was the mother of Alí de la Palomera, who betrayed her people by assisting James I of Aragon in the conquest of Mallorca.

Zulema L'Astròloga was described as a renowned astronomer. After the conquest, she and her family were allowed to remain on the island of Mallorca. Tradition has recorded anecdotes about her. The medieval tower of Sant Elm at Andratx is said to have been the tower from which she watched the stars.

Zulema L'Astròloga is mentioned in the contemporary Crònica by Catalan chronicler Bernard Desclot, and the subject of the poem N'Alí de la Palomera (1871) by the Spanish polymath Pere d'Alcàntara Penya [fr], as well as in a poem by the Catalan philologist Tomàs Forteza [fr].
