Waugh (p207)  gives these (in degrees and decimal mins) as averages based
upon Eastern Standard time, viz:

Aries           0d 0m
Taurus          11d 28.5m
Gemini          20d 9.3m
Cancer          23d 26.6m
Leo             20d 9.3m
Virgo           11d 28.5m
Libra           0d 0m
Scorpio         -11d 28.5m
Sagittarius             -20d 9.3m
Capricornus     -23d 26.6m
Pisces           -11d 28.5m

They correspond to solar longitudes of 0, 30, 60 90, 120, 150, 180, 210,
240 270, 300 and 330 degrees and vary slightly each year. 

Hope this is of use.
