Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Uranus retrogrades either side of 1983

Previous

1982 Ended August 9, 1982 after 153 days, moving back 4.05° through the zodiac.

Next

1984 Begins March 18, 1984 and runs 153 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.
