Planetary dispositors (Hindu astrology)

[5] In Hindu astrology the Planetary dispositor is also known as the Poshaka, meaning the "Nourisher", because it tends to aid the occupant of its sign or house.

Saturn, Rahu and the lord of 12th house possess separatist tendencies (in respect of marriage, partnership etc.

[11] The status acquired by dispositors of Sahams, the sensitive points, in the Varshaphala charts is equally important .

In the formation of Dhvaja yoga each of the seven planets (Rahu and Ketu excluded) strong and alone are in another’s sign, with one of them situated in the Lagna.

[14] In the case of sthanaparivartana (mutual exchange of signs) that gives rise to a powerful yoga, two dispositors arise who then act as partners, which one is stronger depends upon their individual Awastha.

[20] The dispositor of the lord of the navamsa occupied by any planet too plays a pivotal role in yoga-formations.
