Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Jupiter retrogrades either side of 1920

Previous

1919 Ended March 2, 1919 after 119 days, moving back 10.07° through the zodiac.

Next

1921 Begins January 3, 1921 and runs 122 days.

Both dates are computed from the planet’s apparent motion, not taken from a table. A retrograde begins the moment its daily movement against the stars turns negative, and that moment is findable to the hour.
