Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 1908

Previous

1906 Ended December 20, 1906 after 41 days, moving back 15.3° through the zodiac.

Next

1910 Begins January 22, 1910 and runs 41 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.
