The retrograde motion of a hypothetical extremely distant (and nearly non-moving) planet would take place during a half-year, with the planet's apparent yearly motion being reduced to a parallax ellipse. The center of the retrograde motion occurs at the planet's opposition which is when the planet is exactly opposite the Sun.
This four-month transit is a long-overdue lucky streak.
During one Jovian year, Jupiter moves 360° around the sun whereas Kaʻepaokaʻawela moves 366.3° in the opposite direction. The eccentricity of its orbit allows it to alternately pass inside and outside of Jupiter's orbit at its closest approaches of 176 million kilometers. Each time it passes near Jupiter its orbital elements, including its ...

Retrograde motion in astronomy is, in general, orbital or rotational motion of an object in the direction opposite the rotation of its primary, that is, the central object (right figure). It may also describe other motions such as precession or nutation of an object's rotational axis .
Jupiter retrograde. When is it? Sept. 4 through Dec. 30. Jupiter retrograde in Taurus may prove to be beneficial. This transit urges us to make calculated risks instead of jumping all in without ...
The retrograde motion of a planet is its apparent backward motion through the sky caused by the Earth travelling past a slower-moving outer planet, or when the Earth is itself passed by a faster-moving inner planet. [8] The outer planets are retrograde for over 40% of the time.
