Leave one's mark, in a way (4)

I believe the answer is:

sign

(Other definitions for sign that I've seen before include "Omen or indication" , "Any of the 12 divisions of the Zodiac" , "Engage by written agreement" , "Indication - put one's name down" , "Manifestation" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
