Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Uranus retrogrades either side of 2040

Previous

2039 Ended 9 February 2040 after 93 days, moving back 2.87° through the zodiac.

Next

2041 Begins 22 November 2040 and runs 140 days.

Gap across 2040

0.8 years between the two — long enough for a whole calendar year to fall inside it with nothing to report.

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.
