Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 1919

Previous

1918 Ended March 2, 1918 after 41 days, moving back 15.78° through the zodiac.

Next

1921 Begins April 1, 1921 and runs 43 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.
