6th LI predictions regarding his zodiac + birthday!
gang, recently ive been incredibly engrossed in theories & speculations surrounding the potential 6th love interest, which of course helped me form my own opinions regarding this mystery man.
not ALL of these are original and have likely been pointed out before, but i'd like to rant about how detailed these theories are as well, even if they aren't mine. i'll also try to keep this as neat as i can because i have a horrible habit of side-tracking when i get excited about something i have a LOT to talk about...
of course, before continuing, do keep in mind that these are ALL fan theories & predictions. none of this is confirmed, and it's also possible that the 6th love interest will be totally different from whatever is suggested below. it's all for fun ^-^
so to start off, infold is pretty detailed about symmetry/balancing love interests, you know. we're going to proceed with this in mind and try to judge things based on it. we're also going to scratch off some birth months first to make it easier to guess which zodiac sign he may fall under.
rafayel & sylus birth months are march & april respectively, right next to each other. likewise, zayne & xavier birth months are september & october, also right next to each other. that leaves us with caleb, whose birth month is in JUNE.
so for now, the months we're left with are january, february, may, july, august, november, and december. but for now, we're going to focus on this birth month pattern; march & april, september & october.
the months right next to june are MAY & JULY. however, i doubt the 6th LI's birth month would be may. why? because march, april, may, june? 4 BIRTHDAYS IN A ROW? it's too much for the players. so MAY is off the list, and we could consider july instead.
likewise, i doubt august, which is right before zayne's month is a candidate. which is why i also believe november is unlikely, as it's right after xavier's month. 3 birthdays in a row is NOT fair either, and infold will likely limit it to 2 birthdays in a row. and naturally, we'd have to scratch february OFF the list as well because it's right before rafayel's month, march.
so the candidates we're left with are: january, july, and december.
however, i would ALSO eliminate january as it has already been claimed by a very special event: the love&deepspace anniversary!
the reasoning: anniversaries are reserved for significant multibanners and events. players NEED to have enough resources to spend on them. a january birthday amidst the january anniversary event would make it too difficult and unfair! which is why, january is OFF the list too.
don't worry guys, let's not forget how the eliminated months will very well be PACKED with multibanners, myths, solos, reruns, and whatnot.
SO! we're only left with TWO potential months: JULY & DECEMBER.
look, i'm no astrology genius, and my knowledge of horoscopes hardly goes beyond those 2020 aesthetic zodiac meme pages i'd scroll through when i was like 14. so if there are any patterns i've missed, feel free to share your thoughts :]
unfortunately, yes, i'm afraid the 6th love interest will likely not be a scorpio, despite how mysterious he is. scorpio dates range from october 23 to november 21. i'm not saying it's impossible, but based on this "infold pattern," it's unlikely. not to mention, as we discussed before, 3 birthdays in a row will 100% catch flak from the players, and rightfully so, let's be real.
aside from november, we also eliminated january, february, may, and august. considering the pattern again, the 6th love interest will likely not be an aquarius either, as the dates for this sign range from january 20 to february 18. sadly, he also might not be a taurus (april 20 to may 20).
which leaves us with possibilities for a december capricorn, july cancer, july leo, and december sagittarius.
december capricorn would mean the birthday could lie between december 22 and december 31 (remember, we're not counting january).
birthday events last only a week, 7 days. so if we assume the birthday is on december 22, the timing to pull for his cards would begin on december 17 [as updates are launched into the game 5 days prior to the birthday] and end on december 24 [2 days after the birthday, which is also typical for the game], giving us 1 week to pull.
the nightly rendezvous banner was launched on december 31, so the anniversary multibanner for january 2026 could also be released this year on december 31st. the birthday and multibanner won't really overlap, and there will be a short amount of time (probably 1 week, assuming december 22 as an example) to gather some resources, but is it enough? and what if the birthday is on a later date within the range?
a december capricorn could be a candidate, but there are stronger ones. the point here is: though the birthday may not 100% overlap with the multibanner, it's still risky for infold and will make accumulating resources difficult for players. which means it's kind of unlikely.
july cancer would make the possible birthdays lie between july 1 and july 22. so we have MANY dates to guess from. not to mention, placing the 6th LI's birthday within july would align with the birth month pattern we discussed earlier, as june is caleb's month. so we'd have march & april, june & july, september & october. may & august sort of act as barriers between these birth month pairs, making it a clean pattern.
ALSO! fans speculate that because the 6th love interest is rafayel's foil, it might make sense for his sign to be cancer, a water sign, as rafayel is a pisces (also a water sign).
however, if we predict this based on rafayel & him being foils of each other, we're also going to have to consider the other LIs.
- sylus & xavier : FOILS. aries & libra, sister signs (i.e, they're like polar opposites).
- rafayel & the 6th LI : FOILS. pisces & cancer, same element (water)
- caleb & zayne : FOILS. gemini & virgo, though they're not sister signs or share the same element, gemini & virgo are ruled by the same planet, MERCURY.
what do you guys think of this potential "foil pattern"? would you consider this a pattern? i think it's interesting to consider, so let me know what you think.
anyway, if the 6th LI is released as a july cancer, we could have 2 water signs (pisces, cancer), 1 fire sign (aries), 1 earth sign (virgo), 2 air signs (gemini, libra).
here's what the chart could look like:
the 40-something days gap theory!
- rafayel's birthday: march 6
- sylus's birthday: april 18, which is 43 days after march 6.
- zayne's birthday: september 5
- xavier's birthday: october 16, which is 41 days after september 5.
43, __ , 41. what number falls in between? (insanity) 42! so,
- caleb's birthday: june 13
- 42 days after june 13: july 25.
so if infold keeps this pattern in mind, the 6th LI's birthday could fall on 25th july, which could make him a july leo, as the dates for july leo range from july 23 to july 31.
it's also sufficient time (?) for the players to farm resources to spend while pulling for his birthday card!
however, this is not a strong enough theory to solidify the speculation about the 6th love interest being a july leo. just why it could work.
if the 6th LI is released as a leo, we'd have 2 fire signs (aries, leo), 2 air signs (gemini, libra), 1 earth sign (virgo), and 1 water sign (pisces). this pattern does seem symmetric if you think about it, because we have 2 pairs of matching elements and then 1 pair of complementary elements (namely, earth virgo & water pisces). they are sister signs.
here's what the chart would look like:
pattern kind of falls apart hmm..
i feel like this is the likeliest zodiac for him to fall under. i'm aware some readers might not feel this way because june and december are not adjacent months like march/april & september/october are. but here me out.
the 56-day gap theory!
- sylus's birthday: april 8
- caleb's birthday: june 13, which is 56 days after sylus's birthday.
therefore, it is possible for the 6th love interest's birthday to follow this pattern as well.
- xavier's birthday: october 16
- 56 days after xavier's birthday: december 11.
december 11 could be his birthday, shhh... i'll go in-depth on this prediction in a separate section within this post.
the dates for december sagittarius range from december 1 to december 21st. however, because of the anniversary multibanner, i feel his birthday will fall on the earlier dates. i'd say december 1 to december 14. just my opinion, though.
so we'd have sufficient (?) time to save and spend on his birthday, as well as gather our strength to face the anniversary multibanner. it seems reasonable.
moreover, the 6th love interest is speculated to be released next year, around the time caleb was released. at the end of january, 2026.
the chinese zodiac!
- sylus was released in 2024, the year of the dragon. we're all well aware that he's literally a dragon.
- caleb was released in 2025, the year of the snake. in caleb's lore, snakes are also very significant because of his adam, eve, and the forbidden fruit (apple) trope, where the snake represents temptation. let's also not forget the serpentine character "viper," who tempts the MC to search for the truth about kevi and caleb.
- similarly, if the 6th LI is released in 2026, his chinese zodiac will be the horse. i'm not sure about the significance of the horse to his lore, as we know nothing about him yet, but, the horse would also match his western zodiac, sagittarius, which is represented by the centaur (human/horse hybrid). also, the traits of sagittarius & the horse are quite similar (freedom, independence, adventure, quick-witted, blunt, to name a few)
now let's look at the elements. just like july leo, 2 air signs (libra, gemini), 2 fire signs (aries, sagittarius), 1 earth sign (virgo), 1 water sign (pisces). this also fits the earlier pattern we discussed, about virgo & pisces being sister signs.
importantly, the sister sign pattern becomes even stronger now. let's list the sister signs we have now:
- sylus's aries (fire) & xavier's libra (air)
- rafayel's pisces (water) & zayne's virgo (earth)
- caleb's gemini (air) & the 6th LI's sagittarius (fire)
this balances the elements perfectly and aligns with the opposing signs pattern. here's how the chart would look:
what a lovely pattern. the sister signs are directly across from each other.
ranking them, least to most likely!
our final candidates were december capricorn, july cancer, july leo, and december sagittarius. i'll be ranking them based on the predictions i've mentioned in this post.
4. december capricorn
- not enough time to save for anniversary multibanner
- no notable patterns or symmetry (let me know if you notice any!)
- risky business move
3. july leo
- adjacent birth months pattern (march/april, june/july, september/october)
- should be enough time to save if we consider the "40-something day" gap pattern
- balances the zodiac elements (2 air, 2 fire, 1 earth, 1 water)
- but the pattern doesn't seem symmetrical in the zodiac chart, and like i said, we're leaning heavily into the game's symmetry and balancing of each LI while making these predictions
2. july cancer
- adjacent birth months pattern (march/april, june/july, september/october)
- also should be enough time to save, though i can't think of any "x days" gap patterns.
- matches rafayel's water sign (pisces), as cancer is also a water sign. rafayel is also his foil, so it does make sense.
- potential "foil pattern" (aries&libra being sister signs, pisces&cancer sharing the same element, gemini&virgo being ruled by the same planet)
- no significant drawbacks i can currently think of, which is why i ranked it #2.
1. december sagittarius
strongest candidate in my opinion.
- sufficient time to save.
- "56-day gap" speculation.
- "december 11" prediction which i will expand on lower.
- "year of the horse x sagittarius" being connected prediction.
- perfectly balances the zodiac elements pattern (2 air, 2 fire, 1 water, 1 earth).
- perfectly balances the sister signs pattern (aries&libra, pisces&virgo, gemini&sagittarius).
therefore, i believe it is very likely for him to be a december sagittarius.
rafayel: march 6
sylus: april 18
caleb: june 13
zayne: september 5
xavier: october 16
fans speculate that if sylus, xavier, and caleb have two-digit birthdays, it would make sense for the 6th love interest's birthday to be single-digit like rafayel and zayne's birthdays are.
let's think of it this way:
13, 16, 18 & _ , 5, 6
clearly, 13 is the odd one out in the two-digit set of numbers (13, 16, 18). so, how could this correlate to a potential one-digit birthday for the 6th LI?
let's look at the differences between xavier & sylus birthdays and zayne & rafayel birthdays.
> 18 - 16 = 2, there's a difference of 2.
> 6 - 5 = 1, there's a difference of 1.
now let's look at the difference between 16 (xavier) & 13 (caleb).
> 16 - 13 = 3, there's a difference of 3.
could we consider a difference of 3 when looking at zayne's birthday?
> 5 - 3 = 2, there's a difference of 2.
the pattern would look like: 13, 16, 18 & 2, 5, 6.
let's put this aside for now and try to think of something else.
sylus and xavier birthdays have a difference of 2.
(18 - 16 = 2)
caleb and xavier birthdays have a difference of 2.
(16 - 13 = 3)
then, rafayel and zayne birthdays only have a difference of 1.
(6 - 5 = 1)
perhaps, zayne and the 6th LI's birthday could have a difference of 2? so, 5 - 2 = 3.
the pattern would look like: 13, 16, 18 & 3, 5, 6.
but what if the pattern is like 13, 16, 18 & 5, 6, _ ?
let's check the sums now, using the same numbers we used for differences (1, 2, 3)
13 + 3 = 16
16 + 2 = 18
5 + 1 = 6
6 + 2 = 8, or! 6 + 3 = 9
the pattern would look like: 13, 16, 18 & 5, 6, 8
OR! 13, 16, 18 & 5, 6, 9.
if the 6th LI's birthday is a single-digit number like rafayel & zayne, his birthday could be on december 2, 3 OR december 8, 9. not entirely sure about the pattern here, so let me know what you think.
i, however, lean toward my prediction that the 6th LI's birthday will be on december 11. here's why:
aside from the 56-day gap we discussed earlier, i noticed another pattern that could tie together all the predictions in this post.
look at these sets of numbers:
(16, 18) & (5, 6) & (11 , 13)
we're going to represent them on weighing scales, and we have to make sure they're balanced.
18 & 16 have a difference of 2, and are even numbers. this set of numbers will be on the left scale. on this scale, we also have 1 pair of sister signs. aries & libra. 1 fire sign & 1 air sign.
6 & 5 have a difference of 1, and are adjacent numbers. this set of numbers will not be on any scale. on the contrary, this set of numbers will be the center. the fulcrum of the weighing scales. this also makes sense because we have 1 earth sign (virgo) and 1 water sign (pisces) that are sister signs. not to mention, 6 & 5 are single-digit numbers.
now, to ensure the right side of this weighing scale aligns with the left side...
13 & 11. they may be odd numbers, but like 18 & 16, they also have a difference of 2 (13 - 11 = 2). of course, 13 & 11 are two-digit numbers as well. on this scale, we also have 1 pair of sister signs. sagittarius & gemini. 1 fire sign & 1 air sign. just like the left scale, which we have assigned to sylus & xavier's birthdays.
so if we consider these factors, here's what our scale would look like:
left (16, 18):
- two even numbers
- two 2-digit numbers
- difference of 2
- 1 pair of sister signs
- fire & air
center (5, 6):
- two adjacent numbers
- 2 single-digit numbers
- difference of 1
- 1 pair of sister signs
- earth & water
right (11, 13):
- two odd numbers
- two 2-digit numbers
- difference of 2
- 1 pair of sister signs
- fire & air
what do you think of this?
————
conclusion! (thank god)
i'd say we've built a decent foundation to predict the 6th LI's potential birthday, of course, with the help of the patterns & correlations we notice in the other LIs' birthdays.
we began by eliminating unlikely months. then, we used those months to narrow down potential zodiac signs, and by doing so, we've decided that it's very likely for the 6th LI to be a december sagittarius.
finally, by glimpsing at various number patterns we notice in the LIs' birthdays, we've concluded that it's also likely for his birthday to take place on december 11.
therefore, this is the strongest prediction according to the analyses in this post: december 11 sagittarius, and he might be released in the year of the horse, 2026.
if the 6th love interest is released around the end of january 2026, and if his birthday is on december 11, we will get almost a year of bonding with him properly and getting to know him before giving him his birthday kiss. just like sylus, who was released like two months after his birth month. it'd already passed, which allowed players to get to know him properly for a more heartwarming birthday card. it felt worth it and wasn't rushed.
caleb is an exception here because he was introduced to the game early on, and his girls were waiting for his return for almost a year, plus him and the MC already have a very strong relationship as they've been together since childhood.
we knew very little about sylus prior to his trailer release, only that he's the leader of onichynus and that he'll be a dangerous, mafia boss figure. likewise, we know nothing about the 6th LI. i expect infold to drop concrete hints of his presence in the main story when rafayel & xavier's chapters are released together, to make it fair for the players, and for the 6th LI as well.
anyway, thank you sooo much for reading if you made it this far!! i procrastinated on finishing this midway for almost a month </3 so that definitely tells you something. this was quite fun to think about though! yeah, even if it'd be funny AS HELL if the 6th LI is none of this and the whole post flops, i'm sure i'll enjoy him regardless!! :D
