Venus and Uranus have retrograde rotation.
Venus.!
All planets orbit the sun in the direction that the sun is rotating. There are actually two planets that rotate by retrograde motion and are exceptions to this rule. These planets are Venus and Uranus.
Actually, 3 planets rotate in a retrograde motion, which, by the way, means that they rotate East to West, or in a counterclockwise motion. Most planets rotate in a clockwise direction, or West to East. The three planets that rotate in a retrograde motion are Venus, Uranus and Pluto.venus

The name Venus (Greek form:Aphrodite) means the goddess of love and beauty in Rome. The planet is named after her because it is the brightest planet in the night sky. Venus has a very thick atmosphere and rotates the opposite way of all the other planets.

Retrograde motion.
That is called retrograde rotation.
Venus has no natural satellites and retrograde motion (orbits opposite direction it rotates).
It has retrograde rotation which means it rotates in the opposite direction of all the other planets.
Both Venus and Uranus have clockwise, i.e. retrograde, rotation.
That would be Venus which rotates retrograde. Actually, Uranus does too.
All planets orbit the sun in the direction that the sun is rotating. There are actually two planets that rotate by retrograde motion and are exceptions to this rule. These planets are Venus and Uranus.
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
Any planet, moon or object that rotates in the opposite to us (Well we have to have a common denominator) is said to be in retrograde rotation (or retrograde motion) But most objects in the solar system appear to spin counterclockwise when viewed from above the north pole, so this is normal rotation, not retrograde.
