Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Neptune retrogrades either side of 1916

Previous

1915 Ended April 9, 1915 after 157 days, moving back 2.81° through the zodiac.

Next

1917 Begins November 9, 1917 and runs 157 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.
