Venus retrograde 2048
No retrograde period falls inside 2048. That is not an omission — the loop lands either side of the year boundary.
Why a year can have none
A retrograde recurs every 583.92 days — the synodic period of Venus. Because that does not divide evenly into 365.25 days, the loops drift through the calendar. For the slower planets a single loop can start in one year and finish in the next, leaving a calendar year with nothing inside it.
Check 2047 and 2049 — the period you are looking for will be in one of them.

Gap across 2048
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.

Venus through the zodiac in 2048
Every sign Venus occupies during 2048, with the dates it enters and leaves. A sign that appears twice means the planet backed into the previous sign during a retrograde and crossed again.
15 segments in 2048. Dates from JPL orbital elements, good to about a day at sign changes.
