Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Jupiter retrogrades either side of 1998

Previous

1997 Ended October 8, 1997 after 120 days, moving back 9.85° through the zodiac.

Next

1999 Begins August 25, 1999 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.
