Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Jupiter retrogrades either side of 2017

Previous

2016 Ended May 9, 2016 after 122 days, moving back 9.98° through the zodiac.

Next

2018 Begins March 9, 2018 and runs 124 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.
