Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Saturn retrogrades either side of 2007

Previous

2006 Ended April 5, 2006 after 134 days, moving back 6.94° through the zodiac.

Next

2008 Begins December 31, 2008 and runs 136 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 2007

Every sign Saturn occupies during 2007, 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.
