Swapnil,

 

Here's how I understood about why (and how) planets own signs, moolatrikona and exaltation debilitation etc.,

 

To understand this better - Look at planets as for example normal people.

Planet's own sign is like a person being at home - relaxed, comfortable and doing something very easy and natural.

Planet's moolatrikona is like a person being at workplace - very sincere, diligent and takes work seriously.

Planets exaltation sign is like a person being at a party - in full spirits, enjoying loves where he is and what he is doing. Debilitation is opposite hates, bad place, low spirits.

 

Now consider Moon as a Motherly figure. Mother is comfortable at home (4th house of zodiac - Cancer own sign), very sincere about working/caring for the family (2nd house of zodiac - Taurus) and also loves enjoys being there exalts (in 2nd house of zodiac - Taurus).

 

Rather than mechanically memorizing the different signs for different planets - This should help you understand and appreciate the logic behind the signs and the planets.

 

See if you can expand the above logic for all the planets including Rahu and Ketu.

 

Hope this helps you clarify your doubts.
