Uranus retrograde dates in 1931

Uranus turns retrograde once in 1931.

Uranus turns retrograde once about every 12.2 months, and each retrograde lasts between 149 and 154 days, about five months. Because it moves slowly, its stations fall only a few days later each year.

A retrograde of Uranus is centred on its opposition to the Sun, when the Earth overtakes it. In tradition Uranus stands for change, originality and independence, and astrologers who follow retrogrades read a Uranus retrograde as a time to revisit those themes. That is a tradition of interpretation, not a measured effect.

Stations are found by Astrely's own code from the planets' positions and are shown in Nicosia time. Mercury's stations are checked against NASA/JPL Horizons to within four minutes; the outer planets move so slowly around a station that their times are best read to the day. The method page has the details.
