The augmented triad is one that is often overlooked and can elicit an emotional change. I've been auditioning both the augmented and diminished chord structures in my improvisation. Then adding 9ths and 13ths to get some really new sound. Now I've got to get it into a nice progression. I like how you describe being transported, I feel this often as well. @Bob, It’s so interesting what changing one note can do.

I honestly don't have a word for the emotion it produces. Its nebulous character is certainly something Debussy was fond of.  I love to use it to get to other major chords as well. Change C-E-G# to B-E-G#, or C-E-G# to C-Eb-Ab. A truly fascinating chord! Thanks for the thoughts, Brad. The augmented triad  is the chord that transports me into another world.
