A planet without dates is retrograde for the whole month.
The busiest stretch. At most 6 planets are retrograde at the same time: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune, on Dec 15–18. Astrologers read a crowded retrograde sky as a period for review and repair across the board.
All planets direct. No planet is retrograde from Apr 29 to May 22: the clear run of the year, which astrologers favour for launches and decisions that should not need a second pass.
The fast planets. Mercury turns retrograde three times (Apr 5, Aug 8, Nov 28) and starts the year retrograde, until Jan 3. Venus is retrograde Dec 14 – Jan 24, 2038. Mars is retrograde Oct 12 – Dec 23. These are the retrogrades people tend to notice, because Mercury, Venus and Mars describe everyday matters: communication, relationships and drive.
The slow planets. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are each retrograde for four to five months of every year, so they work as background seasons. The days that stand out are their stations, when they stop and turn.
No planet reverses. Retrograde motion is an apparent change of direction seen from Earth, the same effect as a slower car seeming to slide backwards when you overtake it. Astrologers read a retrograde as a review of what that planet stands for. The retrograde planets guide explains each one.
