Dear Fraser,

1. Thanks for your acute observations:)

2. Usually, the Grand Duke is used in a "wider area" e.g. in terms of a country or a county or state.

Under this situation, one can realise that every degree makes a difference. For example one county can differ from another by just a few degrees.

With this understanding, one can understand why we talk about lesser North East, lesser North West etc...

3. You correctly pointed out that in a home, it is hard to `imagine' that the grand duke is confined to only 67.5 degrees as an example and why not 70 degrees.

4. A good way to understand this is to imagine that closer the centrepoint, the compass directions gets closer to each other. And there are fewer ranges to play around.

In general, if it is a wide circle, we can group each range to 60 sectors or more. But when we analyse a house, we may use 24 sectors (directions or sectors).

5. Usually on the `safe side' in an average sized home, one should look at the grand duke in terms of the 8 sectors similar to the Eight House Theory.

For example, we should only confine ourselves with the location of grand duke at: North, NE, East, SE, SW, South, West and NW.

Therefore, use the Eight House as a reference and if the compass direction falls close to NE, then, avoid disturbing the grand duke at NE. (Rather than the lesser degree only).

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
