Is there a way to draw four line segments through a point that extend in 8 directions based on my coordinate system?

In the editor tools you could use the direction, deflection and length functions when drawing a line. If its just the four lines this should get you out of trouble. This link has some background information about creating a segment using an angle and length. This link has some information about Arcgis and direction measuring systems. Hope this helps.
