Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Saturn retrogrades either side of 1901

Previous

1900 Ended September 2, 1900 after 141 days, moving back 6.6° through the zodiac.

Next

1902 Begins May 8, 1902 and runs 141 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.
