The planets don't have to "do anything" to "go into" retrograde motion. The retrograde motion, the "moving backward" that planets do as we watch them cross the night sky over the weeks, is due to the nature of the orbit of a planet and to our view of that orbit from earth.
What is synchronous orbit?
A synchronous orbit is an orbit whose period is the same as the period of rotation of the parent body. If the orbit is circular, the orbiting body remains above the same point on the surface of the parent; if it is elliptical, the orbiting appears to move forward and backward in its orbit, returning to the same point each (sidereal) day. Stationary orbit around the Earth is called geostationary orbit or Clarke orbit (after science and science fiction writer Sir Arthur C. Clarke). Such an orbit is frequently used for communications satellites, since it results in the satellite appearing to be fixed in the sky so that ground antennas do not need to move to track it. A geostationary orbit is about 22,240 miles (35,800 km) above the equator.
