Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Uranus retrogrades either side of 1916

Previous

1915 Ended October 22, 1915 after 154 days, moving back 3.93° through the zodiac.

Next

1917 Begins May 29, 1917 and runs 154 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.
