Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Saturn retrogrades either side of 2000

Previous

1998 Ended December 29, 1998 after 136 days, moving back 6.86° through the zodiac.

Next

2001 Begins September 27, 2001 and runs 134 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 2000

Saturn through the zodiac in 2000

Every sign Saturn occupies during 2000, 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.
