==Switching between archeo- and oneirotonic==
An oneirotonic mode and an archeotonic mode based on the same tonic may share up to 6 notes; replace the "1 2 1" in the oneirotonic mode with a "2 2". Hence, pseudo-diatonic music in 13edo can easily use both archeotonic and oneirotonic, switching back and forth between a 7-note mode and a corresponding 8-note one as the situation requires.

The oneirotonic modes that have "twin" archeotonic modes that keep the same tonic are, from brightest to darkest:
One way to do this is to exploit the fact that an oneirotonic mode and an archeotonic mode based on the same tonic may share up to 6 notes; replace the "1 2 1" in the oneirotonic mode with a "2 2".

This operation might change the mood of the scale drastically. For example, Mnarian, a "minor" mode (a little like diminished + Dorian), becomes Karakalian, a "major" mode (a little like whole tone + Dorian).
