You could use the Buffer() function, like so:

update MyTable set obj = buffer(obj, 6, .5, "mi")

This turns your points into hexagons with a radius of half a mile. Change 
the 6 to a 3 to get triangles, 4 to get diamonds (squares), 5 to get 
pentagons, 12 or more to approach circles.

If you don't like the orientation, you'll have to do a lot more work.
