Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Saturn retrogrades either side of 2045

Previous

2044 Ended July 27, 2044 after 140 days, moving back 6.65° through the zodiac.

Next

2046 Begins April 1, 2046 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.

Computed for 2045
