There are differences between chart ruler, dominant olanet and the final dispositor. They are sometimes the same planet, but don't mistake them for being the same thing.

For instance, my chart ruler AND dominant planet is Mercury.

I don't have a final dispositor because I have a mutual reception with Mars in Sag and Jupiter in Aries.

From a link which is no longer up www.galacticcenter.org/dispositors.htm

The Power of Dispositors: A Systematic Approach

Dispositors are the Circuitry of a Chart

Dispositors are a way we can look at astrology with a systematic approach. Astrology is no different than life with respect to the fact that everything is inter-related. People need support, and a feeling of connection. The planets operate the same as people. They need support and connection. The make-up of a chart involves how the planets are connected. This can be seen as the circuitry of a chart. I see it as how a chart is wired giving great depth into the life’s karma. Events play out systematically according to the patterns. You will be able to see the root cause of any behavior and situation based on the planets associations or connectors.

Dispositors Reveal the "Why"

A Dispositor is a one-way connector of the planets. It is simply the sign a planet is in; the planet of that sign is its dispositor. The planet that is the dispositor of a planet is the soul essence of that planet (DeFouw). It gives the reasons why a planet reacts in the way it does. Example: Saturn in Libra: Venus is the dispositor of Saturn because Venus rules Libra. Venus would be the soul, and reason why Saturn operates the way it works. Look to all the planets and their dispositors. What is happening is you’re finding the connections of the planets. They are all connected in this way.

Final Dispositors

You may find as you follow the planet's dispositors around the chart, one planet will end up as the final dispositor. It will be in it’s own sign of rulership, because when a planet is in the sign it rules it disposits itself. This is why planets in their sign of rulership are so strong and intense. Example: Saturn in Libra is dispositor by Venus, Venus in Sagittarius is deposited by Jupiter, Jupiter is in Gemini is disposited by Mercury, Mercury is in Virgo, since Mercury is ruled by Virgo it cannot go any further. In this case it is the final dispositor, meaning the energy of the chart is focused through Mercury. A final dispositor will be one of the most significant planets in a chart. There can be a planet that is a final dispositor of other planets in the chart, but one final dispositor of all the planets is rare.

so my final d's are venus and pluto? i like this method too. they are always my top 2 dominants. the 3rd one changes depending on software. sometimes it is moon, mars, capricorn, aries. i don't pay much attention to whatever comes in 3rd.

how do you read the dispositor by house? merc, venus, mars. so in my chart that is h1, h6, and h7 coz that is where these planets are?

^ If it's in black, that means it stands alone in its natural sign or house. Automatic emphasis. So you have Venus in a Venus ruled sign, Pluto in Scorpio, Mercury in a Mercury-ruled house, Venus in a Venus-ruled house, and Mars in the 1st.
Your dispositor by house looks to have more emphasis on Mercury since there are 3 bodies aligned to it, the other have 2.

Here's my example for figuring out the houses:

Start from the bottom, work your way up:
Uranus/Neptune are both in the 5th, the house of the Sun
Sun is in the 8th, the house of Pluto
Pluto/Jupiter are both in the 4th, the house of the Moon
Moon (and also Mars/Saturn/Venus) are in Mercury-ruled houses, the 6th and the 3rd
2 circles there with the arrow pointing to both means Mutual Reception by house:
Mercury is in a Venus-ruled house, the 7th & Venus is in a Mercury-ruled house, the 6th - so in mutual receptions there is no final dispositor, the emphasis is on the connection shared by those two placements.
