Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 1916

Previous

1914 Ended December 18, 1914 after 41 days, moving back 15.31° through the zodiac.

Next

1918 Begins January 20, 1918 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.
