Uranus retrograde dates in 2020

Uranus turns retrograde once in 2020 and is already retrograde on 1 January.

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.
