positional astronomy - How/where to check where the Sun is (constellation)?

In this case, Wolfram|Alpha has you covered. For example, look at the result for "which constellation was the Sun in Jan 1 1400". That said, I'm not sure this calculate includes the precession of the Earth's rotation axis, since I would've expected it to get my astrological birth sign right in 500 BC.
