The 11-limit miracle temperament has various extensions to the 13-limit. The following temperaments are discussed in this article:

  • Miraculous (31 & 41) – tempering out 105/104, 144/143, 196/195, and 243/242;
  • Benediction (31 & 41f) – tempering out 225/224, 243/242, 351/350, and 385/384;
  • Manna (31f & 41) – tempering out 225/224, 243/242, 325/324, and 385/384;

In addition, we also consider the only alternative 11-limit mapping:

  • Revelation (21 & 31) – tempering out 66/65, 99/98, 105/104, and 512/507.

As we will see in #Interval chain, miraculous is the only extension whose complexity is at about the same level as the 11-limit. It is supported by 72f. The generator, representing 15/14, and 16/15, goes one step further to stand in for ~14/13, and you can find 11/9~16/13 just three generator steps away. Benediction and manna are available if we want to use the more accurately tuned patent val mapping of prime 13 in 72edo, in which they merge into one. However, benediction benefits from a flatter tuning such as 103edo whereas manna benefits from a sharper tuning such as 113edo.

Another possible path which relates a sense of compromise is to temper out 169/168, leading to semimiracle. This has the effect of slicing the period in two, and is supported by 62, 72, and 82. Finally, there is mirage, the rank-3 expansion of miracle with the addition of an independent generator for prime 13.

Miraculous, benediction, and manna can all be extended to the 17-limit by recognizing 21/16~17/13, tempering out 273/272. For miraculous it implies the generator also represents 17/16, which is supported by 72fg. For semimiracle it implies the half-octave period represents 17/12~24/17.

225/224 factors into (400/399)·(513/512) in the 19-limit, suggesting that miracle can be extended to include prime 19 by tempering out both commas. However, this means 31edo is no longer in the valid diamond monotone range. There is also a natural extension to the 23-limit that tempers out 300/299 and 392/391.
