Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Jupiter retrogrades either side of 1997

Previous

1996 Ended September 3, 1996 after 122 days, moving back 9.84° through the zodiac.

Next

1998 Begins July 18, 1998 and runs 118 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.
