Previous

1957 Ended August 11, 1957 after 141 days, moving back 6.63° through the zodiac.

Next

1959 Begins April 16, 1959 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.
