Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Pluto retrogrades either side of 1933

Previous

1932 Ended April 2, 1932 after 162 days, moving back 2.21° through the zodiac.

Next

1934 Begins October 28, 1934 and runs 161 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.

Computed for 1933

Pluto through the zodiac in 1933

Every sign Pluto occupies during 1933, with the dates it enters and leaves. A sign that appears twice means the planet backed into the previous sign during a retrograde and crossed again.
