Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Saturn retrogrades either side of 1937

Previous

1936 Ended November 19, 1936 after 139 days, moving back 6.75° through the zodiac.

Next

1938 Begins July 30, 1938 and runs 137 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.
