Multifaceted Dispositors: Rashi-Nakshatra-Navamsha

The 360° zodiac can be divided in several ways. If we divide it in 12 parts, we get the 12 signs, each having important characteristics. The planet that is the lord of the sign is called the sign dispositoror Rasheesh. The sages of yore have compiled phenomenal number of mundane and esoteric qualities of each nakshatra. planetary lord is called the nakshatra dispositor or Nakshatresha. If we calculate 4 padas of all the nakshatra, (27x 4=108), we get the navamshas. The planetary lords of navamshas are called Navamsha dispositorsor Navamshesha. So, in chart analysis, eventually it all boils down to planets. It is either the natural karakatwas of the planets or those of thethree dispositors mentioned above. These three dispositors form the subject matter of this book.
