General character of rashi:
Good talker, judicious in dealings
Saturns two rashis are of Bhoomi(earth) (makar) and vayu(air) tatva (kumbh).
Venus two rashis are of Bhoomi(vrish) and vayu tatva.(Tula)
Mercury two rashis are of Bhoomi(virgo) and vayu tatva.(mithun)
Hence Saturn, Venus and Mercury are friends
Like wise...
Suns Leo is of pure Agnitatva.(fire element)
Moons Cancer is of pure Jaltatva.(water element)
Jupiters two rashis are of Jal and Agni tatva.
Mars two rashis are of Jal and Agni tatva
Hence Jupiter, mars, sun and moon are friends.
But still all Rashis are different w.r.t to their water content.
Saturn:-

Makar Bhoomi(earth) tatva- 100% Jal(water), Kumbh Vayu(air) tatva- 50% Jal.
Venus:Vrish Bhoomi tatva- 50% Jal, Tula Vayu tatva- 25% Jal.
Mercury:Kanya Bhoomi tatva- 0% Jal, Mithun- Vayu tatva- 0% Jal.
Jupiter:Dhanu Agni tatva- 50% Jal, Meena- Jal tatva- 100% Jal.
Mars:Mesh- Agni tatva- 25% Jal, Vrishchik- Jal tatva- 25% Jal.
Sun:Simh- Agni tatva- 0% Jal.
Moon:Kark- Jal tatva- 100% Jal.
Before going ahead lets also understand that...
Grah gives rise to Iccha Shakti
Rashi gives rise to Gyana Shakti
Nakshatra gives rise to Kriya shakti
NOW THE REASONS:
1) Saturn has control over Air, so primary significator of the Air; hence called as
vayu tatva grah (Mithun(Gemini), Tula(libra) and kumbh(aquarius) are the vayu(air
element) tatva rashi therefore falls under the jurisdiction of Saturn).
As a result Saturn is more comfort table in Vayu tatva rashi.
Now why Saturn is not exalted in other vayu tatva rashis like Mithun and kumbh?
2 basic reasons:
a) Relationship of Saturn with Venus is stronger than Saturns relationship with
Mercury, though Saturn is friendly to both but Venus is the favorite chap of Saturn,
hence Saturn is not exaltated in Mithun. As per lal kitab, there is an inherent
connection between Saturn and Venus, they both comes to each other rescue when
caught in a problem. You all must have seen that the most eventful antardasha
dasha in the mahadasha of Saturn is that of Venus, now whether its GOOD or BAD,
it depends on many factors.
Kumbh is Saturns own and mooltrikond sign, hence this possibility is also ruled out
for Saturns exaltation.
So Saturn is exalted in Tula.

Note: Saturn is not exalted in Venus other sign, i.e. Taurus because that is a bhoomi
tatva(earth sign) and also not the mooltrikond sign of Venus.
b) Another reasoning is, Mithun rashi is a nirjal rashi (0% water content), kumbh is a
ardhjal rashi (50% water content) and Tula is a padjal rashi (25% water content),
Tula is preferred by Saturn also because Saturn is the enemy of moon i.e. jal tatva
planet, since kumbh has 50% water content, it manages that by owning it but is not
completely delighted over there, on the other extreme Mithun is a nirjal rashi which
is also not preferred by Saturn. Hence exalted in padjal rashi tula.now why exactly
Saturn does not prefer Nirjal rashi(0 % water content sign).the answer lies in the
formation of our planet where waters share
is itself 70 %...only few planets like sun(which itself is fire element) prefer the Nirjal
signand that is the reason why Moon gets uncomfortable in Mithun and virgo
signsif not aspected by shubh planets more so because for moon mercury is the
enemyanyways lets move ahead
2) General character of Libra rashi matches with that of Saturn i.e. both are
judicious in dealings, hence Exalted in Tula.
3) Libra is the sign of balance and Saturn is the Planet of balance or Justice, hence
Exalted in Tula.
4) Libra rules the west direction and Saturn gains Directional strength in 7th house
which coincides with west direction. This could be understood as per the kalchakra
too, hence exalted in Tula.
5) Libra is the southern sign and Saturns both rashis Makar and kumbh coincides
with south direction (10th house and 11th house) as per the kalchakra system,
hence exalted in Tula.
6) Both Tula and Saturn rules dhatuu (or metal)
7) Libra rules past tense and Saturn is famous for giving the results of the past
karma bluntly.
Note: Icha shakti of Saturn (Planet) gains maximum Gyan shakti in Tula Rashi.
There are many other reasons and point of views, for instance;
1) Saturn turns exalted where sun turns neech, to understand this is deep, I have to
write another article on why sun gets neech in Tulaagain there are many
reasonsbut main ones are Swati nakshatra ruled by rahu (most dreaded enemy of
Sun) lies in Tula rashi, lord venus is the shatru of sun (this shatruta aggravates in
the mooltrikond sign of Venus) etc etcanyways lets remain focused on Saturn
exaltation factors.
2) For many the answer lies in the nakshatras of Tula rashi, 2 padas of chitra(lord
mars), 4 padas of Swati(lord rahu) and 3 padas of vishakha(lord Jupiter).will
explain from this angle in detailASAP
