It can be thought of as meantone with quarter tones as it merely spits the generator 3/2 into two equally spaced neutral thirds. Among the most common is the seven note MOS mohajira[7] which consists LLLsLLs - the same structure as meantone[7] but with all the semitones replaces by neutral tones. The result is a sort of "neutral scale", being neither major nor minor but something entirely new sounding.
 
=Modes and MOS=
There are seven diatonic modes of mohajira which are structured in an analogous way to the seven church modes of the major scale. They can be thought of as quarter tone altered modes in a 24 EDO setting, but also as microtonal altered scales in any equal temperament. In addition there is also a seven note Modmos called "Rast" which can be thought as mohajira 7 with a raised sixth degree and a lowered fourth degree OR alternatively you can think of it as the fifth mode of mohajira[7] with a raised sixth degree.
 
Because there are too many possible Mohajira Mos and Modmos, Kentaku has organized a way to think of the progression of accidentals in the modes of Mohajira.
The scales are organized based on evoking slightly different colors and categorized by different levels of alteration from a meantone scale.
 
==Level 4 - Mohajira MOS Purely Neutral==
1 2 v3 4 5 v6 v7 1 or C D Ed F G Ad Bd C
 
==Level 3 - Mohajira ModMOS by 1 alteration==
Rast/Sikah - 1 2 v3 4 5 6 v7 1 or C D Ed F G A Bd C
 
==Level 2 - Mohajira ModMOS by 2 alteration==
Altered Melodic Minor - 1 2 v3 4 5 6 v7 1 or C D Ed F G A Bd C
Altered Harmonic Minor - 1 2 v3 4 5 6 v7 1 or C D Ed F G A Bd C

=Harmonization of Mohajira=
While the structure of mohajra[7] is virtually the same as meantone[7] with neutral tones instead of semitones, the scale doesn't harmonize in the same manner. Because there is now only one middle sized third, it's best to imagine.
