Venus in 2043: a year between two loops

544 days separate the end of one Venus retrograde from the start of the next, and 2043 falls entirely inside that stretch. Venus turns back once every 583.92 days — longer than a calendar year — and each loop is over in weeks, so now and then a whole year passes between two of them.

The loops themselves are on the 2042 and 2044 pages.

Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 2043

Previous

2042 Ended November 9, 2042 after 42 days, moving back 15.7° through the zodiac.

Next

2044 Begins May 6, 2044 and runs 43 days.

Gap across 2043

1.5 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.
