Aquarius- pour water
Pisces- sign "fish" meet each other
Aries- spell A R I E S
Taurus- sign "bull" on your head
Gemini- handspell "G", down G on your chin, then across chin, down G like a sign of "single"
Cancer- sign of crab
Leo- sign of Lion
Virgo- spell V I R G O

Scorpio- sign of scorpion
Sagittarius-spell "S A G"

Most of the time I noticed that ASL users tend to spell it.

In French Sign Language, they do sign them:
PISCES: fish
LIBRA: Balance of weight
GEMINI: Twins
AQUARIUS: Carrying a water basket on shoulder and pouring it down
LEO: Lion
SCORPION: the tail stinging
CANCER: French sign for cancer is like chewing down the body with modified C classifiers.
American signs for cancer would be either "C" shaked, or "ACID" or "C chewing down body"
TAURUS: Bull
CAPRICORN: I don't remember the sign for it, though it is half mermaid half goat, right?
SAGITARIUS: act as if you are using an arrow with a bow and letting it go
VIRGO: Virgin
ARIES: I dont remember the french sign for RAM. I dont know ASL sign for it either except to use the classifier for the long reeling horn.
