Fun Facts About Octopuses & The Heart of Octopus Ink828™

Introduction

Get ready to have your mind blown because we're diving deep into the extraordinary world of octopuses, and trust me, it's nothing short of amazing!

When I first started to learn about octopuses, I had no idea how many powerful traits God placed in them. The more I studied, the more amazed I became.

Three hearts pumping life, nine brains working in sync, the ability to adapt and survive under pressure — and I thought, wow, that’s me.

The octopus and I share those same characteristics: resilience, creativity, and faith that pushes through struggle.

That’s why Octopus Ink828™ isn’t just a name — it’s a reflection of my own journey of restoration through Christ Jesus.

In this post, we’ll explore fun facts about octopuses and show how their incredible traits mirror my story and the heartbeat of this brand.

Three Hearts = Compassion

Octopuses have three hearts — two that pump blood to their gills and one that circulates blood to the rest of the body.

At Octopus Ink828™, this reminds us of the big, compassionate heart of our founder, Vee Jones. Her love is poured into people, into her work, and into the mission of helping others rise above challenges.

Nine Brains = Intelligence

Believe it or not, octopuses have nine brains — one central brain and one in each of their eight arms! This helps them think, react, and multitask in extraordinary ways.

For Vee, this represents her intelligence, creativity, and ability to adapt and camouflage in different environments.

From publishing books and empowering authors to building creative brands, her vision requires more than just “one brain” — it requires strategy, faith, and wisdom in action.

Problem Solving Resilience Written in Ink

Octopuses don’t just survive — they figure it out. Stuck in a jar? They twist it open. . When predators close in, they release their ink and find freedom in the open sea.

Vee’s journey carries that same resilience. She faced poverty, rejection, heartbreak, and the pain of human trafficking — yet she refused to let those things keep her stuck.

By God’s grace, she found her way out and released her own ink: Octopus Ink828™. What was once survival became a mission of healing, restoration, and freedom through Jesus Christ.

The Promise Behind 828

The octopus teaches us something powerful: even when it loses a part of itself, it has the God-given ability to grow it back.

That resilience is the reflection of Romans 8:28 in my story. I’ve faced loss, trauma, and uncertainty, but I believe this promise — that everything, even the broken pieces, will work together for my good.

Just like the octopus grows whole again, God restores me through Christ, turning every loss into proof of His love and purpose.

Fun Facts About Octopuses

Now that you know the deeper reason why the octopus inspires me and Octopus Ink828™, it’s time to celebrate the beauty of God’s design in these creatures.

Octopuses are living proof of God’s creativity — strong, smart, and endlessly fascinating. This is where every detail points back to His amazing design.

The Way They’re Built: Strength in Every Detail of the Octopus Design

Three Hearts – Two for the gills, one for the body. That’s a lot of love pumping through.

Nine Brains – A main brain plus one in each arm. Imagine multitasking like that!

Blue Blood – Their blood runs blue because it’s copper-based. Royal vibes. 

No Bones – Which means they can squeeze through the tiniest cracks. Escape artists for real.

A Secret Beak – Hidden under their arms, used to crack open shells.

Sharp Eyes – Their eyesight is so good, scientists compare it to ours.

From Body to Battle: How Octopuses Survive & Thrive

Master of Disguise – In a blink, an octopus can shift its colors to hide or to shine. God designed them with this gift, reminding us that adaptability is also a strength He places in us.

Built to Adapt – With skin that can shift from smooth to rough in an instant, the octopus shows us the power of flexibility. Just as it adjusts to its surroundings, God gives us the gift of transformation — a living testimony that Christ restores everyone and transforms everything.

The Ink Trick – When predators close in, the octopus releases ink and finds freedom in the open sea. In life, when darkness surrounds us, God gives us His Word as our escape.

Comeback Power – When an octopus loses an arm, it doesn’t stay broken. God designed it to regrow that arm, cell by cell, until it becomes whole again. In the same way, God restores us from the inside out. Isn’t that a picture of His love?

We all face heartbreak, trauma, and loss — but Romans 8:28 promises that He weaves even the hardest parts of our story into something good. The octopus grows new arms; we grow new strength in Christ.

Built to Hold On – Each octopus arm is lined with about 240 suction cups — adding up to thousands in total. These aren’t just for grabbing; they create a vacuum-like seal that allows the octopus to cling to rocks, anchor itself against strong currents, or explore objects without slipping.

And here’s the wild part: each suction cup can actually taste what it touches. That’s strength and precision working together in one amazing design.

Octopus Intelligence, God’s Design

Puzzle Solvers – God gave octopuses memory and problem-solving skills beyond most animals, reminding us that His wisdom equips us to overcome challenges too.

Tool Carriers – They don’t waste what’s around them. With shells or coconuts, they create protection. God calls us to do the same — use what He’s already placed in our path and trust Him with the rest.

Taste + Touch – Their arms can taste and feel at the same time. It’s a simple yet powerful reminder that God makes no mistakes in His design.

Solo Vibes – Even when they’re alone, octopuses thrive. That speaks to us too — solitude with God can be the place where our deepest growth happens.

Conclusion

So, friend, what did we learn? Octopuses are strong, smart, and adaptable — three hearts, nine brains, and ink that writes its own escape. Their lives begin in chaos, rushing full force through a short existence.

Yet this Octopus was built on the foundation of Christ and shall remain with Christ. What begins fragile becomes unshakable when rooted in Him. Octopus Ink828™ was born from the deep but rose in faith — proof that even in chaos, God’s design never fails and His unfailing love restores all.
