What Is A Spiritual Octopus?

I have noticed people have searched for information regarding a demonic spirit similar to an octopus. I would like to take the time to address that today. Sometimes people will get a prophetic insight, a dream or other clue that the spirits involved are so intertwined it is like an octopus. Often the characteristics of a person bound or afflicted by this demonic entity seem so overwhelming that the thought of deliverance can seem hopeless. There is hope for your impossible situation, and Holy Spirit is the One that can help you figure it out!

An octopus has very long arms that signify a long reach, and many suction cups on the underneath of their arms to help them stay attached to whatever they are after. When an octopus wraps itself around an object, it can be so tightly attached that it is virtually impossible to pry it off. Spiritually speaking, when a demonic entity like this is attached to someone, it can seem virtually impossible to be able to reach the person affected. This is because it is a mind blinding spirit. The enemy holds people in such a tight grip that it's against their will; it's forced upon them. Satan uses this force as mind control to cause spiritual blindness and control his victims. Fear is also a huge weapon from the enemy to cause mind control. Fear of man is probably another issue you should address.

It is especially important to note that if there are people in the family that have had involvement with the occult, secret societies or made any ungodly oaths or covenants. Those need to be broken by prayers of renouncement. The enemy looks for open doors to work through, and it's our job to be very thorough so that we don't allow him entrance into our lives. More importantly, is to make sure we don't allow the enemy access to our children's lives through our ignorance of how he works. We don't want our kids and grand kids to go through life with unbroken curses hanging over their heads, so be spiritually responsible. Do your homework. Make that extra effort to be diligent and pray those prayers of renouncement! We have a very thorough one on this site called the Breakthrough Prayer. Here is the link. If it seems too overwhelming to do all of it at once, take it in chunks. Read through it and highlight some of the areas that pertain to occult involvement and secret societies and do them first, then take another chunk the next day and so on until you work through it. Believe me, it is a powerful and effective prayer and it does get results!

I hope that has helped address some of the questions regarding the topic of a demonic entity that seems to have the appearance of a spiritual octopus. Just remember, no matter how overwhelming a situation may seem at first, the Holy Spirit is your best friend, helper and counselor and if you ask Him to guide you through a deliverance issue, He will. That is HIS JOB! Ask Him for the keys to unlock the heart. YOU are anointed to set captives free, open blind eyes, and release healing to those that are suffering under the weight of oppression. Everything Jesus did, you can too, because the great I AM lives within you! The same Holy Spirit that raised Jesus Christ from the dead lives inside of you, and HE is more than enough to defeat all the power of the enemy!

    1. Be sure to pray for your husband. Draw a blood line around him through prayer in the name of Jesus, and declare that his heart belongs to God(the chest is the seat of the heart and emotions) God would not have shown you this if you didn't have the power to change it. He has given you power and authority over all power of the enemy. Fast and Pray. Ask God what to do. He will walk you through it. No weapon that is formed against you, your husband, or your marriage will ever prosper in Jesus's name. Amen.

    2. Dear Unknown,

      So sorry it's take a long time to respond to your comment! Spiders in dream language often represent occult magic or witchcraft. Might I suggest the two of you consider praying our Breakthrough Prayer together? It cuts off generational curses, demonic attachments and also deals with spiritually rooted issues on a variety of levels. It seems by your explanation above that the enemy is targeting your husband but both of you would obviously be affected since your married. The link to our breakthrough prayer is just to the right side of the page, or you can find it under the pages section at the top.

    3. I actually experiencing the octopus squeeze me and torment me literally every moment of every day its horrible. It's so bad and I just printed out the link above and after work today I am going to go and pray through this. Is anyone here able to help me get free of the octopus demon?

    4. Hi Tim,

      I can try to help. First, pray through the Breakthrough Prayer. Check out the response below on the post to Kathy. Also, something to think about...have you ever opened a door to yoga or New Age religions? That can be something the enemy is working through.

      I am not sure if you are aware there is a great resource to the body of Christ: the International Healing Rooms. (Google International Healing Rooms by Cal Pierce and you can find a location near you). They are trained in prophetic and healing ministry and will help you in the area of personal ministry. Find several and go check them out. each one is different but I have personal experience with several and they have all been quite positive. Sometimes you just need someone else to lay hands on you and rebuke those things.

      A mind control spirit looks for vulnerability and areas where it can oppress you. It's very important for you to understand who you are in Christ and develop a strong relationship with God and others. Make sure you fill yourself with prayer, worship, the word and quality Christian relationships. Otherwise those spirits will come back even stronger.

      Bless you,
      Laura

  4. I have known an octopus has been trying to attach to me. In the last 48 hours, I have seen something called the 'mimic octopus' - one on my child's Octonauts show, and then randomly on a newsfeed. I am now curious about the connection. I am in the midst of writing a book about receiving God's salvation. For the first time in over a month, I was attacked in my dream last night by several characters from my past.
    I believe it is Jezebel in the dreams, and I want to called authority over all things, but I can't help to think I am being asked to called out this mimic for what it truly is.

    1. Hi Kathy,

      I believe God is showing you a couple different things through this 'mimic octopus' that captured your attention. First, it is a chameleon-like predator spirit that changes it's outward appearance in order to trap its prey. You're right on point in that those are also characteristics of a Jezebel spirit. That spirit of witchcraft will change its tactics on a dime in order to gain the sympathy, support and cooperation of those that it targets. A person under the influence of Jezebel is under a mind-blinding spirit. Those controlled by it attempt to control the minds (thoughts, emotions, responses, sympathies, concerns, attitudes) of those they want to manipulate. They manipulate the heart and minds of others in order to place them under their control. They may not know they are doing it, and others may not understand that is what is happening to them either. they really are 'blind' to how this spirit gets them under their control. Jezebel is a very dominating spirit. It always has an agenda. If a person challenges that spirit, they will feel guilted or manipulated into compliance and submission. For more information on this topic, check out some of the articles on Charisma Magazine. 15 Characteristics of a Jezebel Spirit is a good one to read. I also have an article titled, "Jezebel's Messengers."

      The thing you might want to ask yourself and ask Holy Spirit to reveal, is WHO is trying to exercise control over you? It could be a friend, spouse, boss, spiritual leader or someone else. The people you saw in your dreams may hold a clue as to the type of spirits that are coming against you. Often it is not necessarily the people themselves as what they may tend to represent to you. Certain dominant traits of the individuals may come to mind when you think of them. Ask yourself what do they represent to you? What was their 'assignment' against you in the dream, and where did it take place? Those are clues as to what God is communicating.

      As I think about a mimic octopus, (and the fact that you feel God is showing you something), it seems very clear that God may be trying to alert you to the possibility that you have someone in your life that is putting on a mask, trying to appear one way when they actually have a hidden agenda. Pray through and God will show you if this is correct.

      Bless you,
      Laura

  5. I can feel, actually FEEL an octopus spirit wrapped around my body and head. It has been like this for over 5 years. I literally try to pry it off my head and cannot not. I feel some things leaving at times but never do they all leave. Can someone please help me. I cannot fast, I cannot worship and can barely pray. I push myself to say prayers at night and in the morning and I can pray throughout the day but my alone time is very greatly affected. I get knocked out by a sleeping spirit everytime I try to pray. I am desperate. As I said I feel it everyday without any relief.

    1. Dear child of God,

      My suggestion is for you to pray through our Breakthrough Prayer. The link is listed to the right side of the page or under the pages section. Also look at the above reply to Kathy Potts. WHO or what is trying to dominate your thoughts, emotions, and keep you tied to them? This type of spirit can come through doors to the occult, New Age experimentation or religions, hypnosis, yoga and martial arts to name a few. Not all martial arts are like that but if you have had any participation to anything where you are basically giving up your dominion and allowing your mind to become subject to someone else's authority those are clues where to look. Some Christian leaders can also be very controlling and dominating and seek to Lord over their congregants. They tell people what to think and what to do rather than humbly leading people to seek God for guidance. All these things must be taken into consideration when trying to discover the source and make sure you separate yourself so that you can receive healing and deliverance.

    2. I have never been involved with any of the New Age, Hypnosis, martial arts, yoga or deeply involved with the occult. I have experimented with some things but never did i get involved with black magic. I had gone to a Church where the leader had a jezebel spirit but I was afflicted before even going there. I just want freedom. I have prayed the prayers and no relief. I AM DESPERATE!!!!!!!! It literally sucks the very energy out of my body. I need someone to help me...I begging for help...

  9. Hello, and thank you for this information. I would like to share the dream I had the other night, and I would like your feed back. I dream that an reddish octopus was wanted to grap hold of my arm; it had two tentacles already around my arm. I can remember having a since of fear and trying to throw/pop it off my arm; then it went into me hearing that an old coworker just quit her job and left. I am asking the Holy Spirit to guide me, I want to scan myself/household if I or my family can be released from anything that is not from our Lord.

  10. Am I the only one in here who can actually FEEL THIS SPIRIT INSIDE ME??? I literally can feel this demons tentacles moving around me and this has been going on for 12 YEARS. I always felt like something was wrong with and had gotten despondent feeling like I didn't know what this spirit was and didn't know how or if I'd ever be free of it. Please pray for me.

  12. Dear Khalisi,

    I wonder if perhaps what you're feeling has to do with the Kundalini spirit. It comes in from New Age religion, yoga and other New Age spiritual practices. It is hard to assess what's going on without knowing where you are in your spiritual walk with God. Please read the previous comments and suggestions above and try the prayers. The principle in James 4:6,7 works if you practice it correctly. If you are resisting the devil and he's not leaving, then there is an area of your life where you are not truly submitted to God. I know that can sound harsh, but it's true. The enemy sees something you do not, and you need to ask Holy Spirit to reveal that blind spot. The Breakthrough Prayer can help with that. Also, Google International Healing Rooms by Cal Pierce and find a location near you. You can go there for personal ministry. They are a good resource for the body of Christ and may be able to help.

    Bless you,
    Laura

  13. I have tried every confession in the book. I have never been involved in new age practices. The only thing the Lord told me specifically was the verse "and after having done all therefore, to stand". That was 8 years ago. Please pray for me. I will do the breakthrough prayer.

  14. I'm thinking most of the people on here are being also effected by the television/computer, even if they don't know it. My advice, if you truly want relief, turn off the computer, all televisions, any form of entertainment and fast. The television/computer is the problem, with one person even saying they seen a "mimic" octopus, the sad thing being, she is more than likely being played with by Satan and NOT being shown things by God, because where did she see it? The television, and even worse, subjecting kids to it! The Bible says in the last days we will live among people who seek after a sign. This is exactly what you are doing. READ THE BIBLE.

      Once a door or gate way is opened satan or a witch can and will use technology to reinforce or work a pronouncement on their victim.

  15. hello, i would like to tell of my experiences of these tentacle creatures. I was dating a not very nice man, and when I realized that he was leeching off of me, at one point I got a flash of him with many black writhing tentacles behind him trying to grab into me. Soon after, I was attacked by another negative individual, and as soon as I realized and though to myself "this is an attack", I got a flash of something that did look like an octopus, with red glowing eyes and tentacles. It reminded me of the sentinels from the movie the matrix.

  16. hiii I'm so glad i came across this information. i am in an unequally yoked marriage where im always under attack by my husband (especially if i had just used anointing oil). I realized he's possessed and recently every time i see him or hear his name i kept seeing a huge reptile just resting in him i wasn't shocked because i understood all the behavioral patterns for tht but then i got flashes of an octopus climbing a wall. Can u shed some light as to why on a wall and not on person. thank you in advance

    1. Hi,

      Walls, especially emotional walls, are typically used as barriers.People use walls of self preservation to try to keep them safe. There are walls of pride, fear, anger or defensiveness to name a few. The enemy uses those type of walls to keep truth out and keep people locked up behind those walls. And octopus climbing on the wall could signify a mind blinding spirit that is set against truth because truth is what makes the captive free. You might try binding the strongman of deception and the father of Lies and release the power and the person of the Holy Spirit because he is the spirit of Truth. Then pray that the Holy Spirit would reveal the truth and get it around the obstacles the enemy has constructed in the person's mind and heart so that the truth can set them free and heal the emotional wounds. Pray also for inner strength in the person's Inner Man that would give them power to overthrow the forces set against them to keep them bound.

  17. Thank you for the article. This is exactly what I faced few nights ago, as I faced an octopus vividly in my dream, but not an ordinary dream. At that time, I didn't know what it was, and I told my wife and dismissed it, but I kept getting reminded of it. Then, within few days, I came face-to-face with a difficulty, which was part of spiritual warfare. I just googled to find this article because I felt it was God's warning of what was to come for me. Thank you for the encouragement and I will continue to pray and fight the spiritual battle. God bless. Daniel

  19. I had a recent experience around an octopus tattoo (not mine). The mind binding and fear parts sure fits. I am also wondering if spirit of legion presents as octopus?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hi Pauline,

    It may be, because Legion represents many, many demons working to oppress someone. You can't get free on your own if that is the case. You need the benefit of two or three others working as a prophetic/deliverance team ministering to you. Google "international healing rooms by Cal Pierce" and you may be able to find a location near you. Or find a legitimate deliverance ministry working through a local church near you.

    Sometimes if people have tattoos, it can signify a covenant or agreement with the spiritual realm that must be renounced before deliverance can occur.

    Most often these controlling spirits operate through someone close to you. The enemy needs someone to work through. It could be a controlling or manipulative spouse, parent, friend or co-worker. These people use guilt, condemnation, shame or comments that target a person's areas of vulnerabaility to get them to conform their behavior so that the other person gets what they want out of you. Namely, compliance in some form. So, ask yourself who is operating in this way against you? The first step is to recognize who the person is, the second is to take a stand against that behavior. The third is to get deliverance. Sometimes deliverance involves leaving that relationship, counseling between both parties or seeking the counsel of Holy Spirit to find out what will be effective.

  21. I have been searching for answers on this spirit. Through sex I would dream of demons that would haunt and torment me. Just because I was saved I thought that my partner would would follow. She experienced symptoms of deliverance but would not follow as it was scary. The getting sick around prayer and praise, nightmares, etc.

    I've left the native American ancestral spirit worship world to follow Jesus Christ. I've sacrificed my flesh and blood as well as animals. I've seen just the name of the Lord work against these beings when I couldn't do anything after years of experience. Also they don't teach us to cast out demons just to rely on the spirits that our alters follow.

    I tried a year to praying every night for my family for marriage. I would get visions and dreams of certain evil demons and beings. One was of the octopus...

    I had a dream I was in a room with my kids mom, she left me in the room. I felt as though I was drugged. I slowly got out of bed and dragged against the wall. The wall extended I was sluggish. I made my way down the hall to the living room where I seen her with two other persons. I said somethings wrong baby I don't feel right so she takes me back into the room and says just lay down you'll feel better. I lay down. I try to get up and look around...I seen a black thing in the corner. I focus on it and it's a black octopus. As soon as I focus on it the things flies so fast over my head. And I hear a sludgy sucking slimy noise and from the top my vision goes dark. I pray in tongues and it continues to darken. It goes black. I call out to the Lord. Praying. I praise the Lord. Telling him how good he is. And this thing Immeditately starts retreating giving my vision back. And I wake up.

    My journey has been so eye opening in the past two years that there's just so much I've experienced, seen, heard, felt...now I know why ppl scream HalleluYAH!! He loves us so much!
    I started walking with the Lord with a salvation prayer and crying out talking to him, reading my Bible and it coming to life. I felt things reading the Bible sensations reading it for even hours, I started seeing lights and colors. I would notice them if I went to churches and around people. I believe the word when I read it and wondered why our churches weren't like how the apostles and disciples operated. I've read about the gifts of the Holy Spirit and how the Holy Spirit came on Pentecost. That we should earnestly desire gifts. What Jesus said we should do, heal the sick, cast out demons, cleanse lepers, he said you can do the things he did even greater! Wow I grew up Catholic but not devout but reading the things Jesus said was like amazing things I never knew about my identity with him. Some stuff I really had to meditate on the meaning. But the revelations we're amazing. He still is peeling bk the veil on things of this world. In America we need to go back to old covenants made on the land. There are many principality and governing spirits having their hold on the first nation ppl. Before settlers came the first nation ppl have covenants and pacts. Pray for the native American reservations please. There is still spirit worship and it's getting bigger. And the reservations are getting worse. The Lord has been raising seers for this hour we see so much darkness running around. We have to go to the countries roots together brothers and sisters. Every state has some spirits or deities that were prayed to by a certain tribe. Healing will occur nationally if we work together going for the roots. Oh yeah also I live in North Dakota and I wondered what the heck is a octopus doing here!?
    ---------

    if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
    II Chronicles 7:14 NKJV

  22. Dear LTY,

    You are absolutely right about the need to break old covenants. I do have a prayer to heal those with Native American ancestry. It's under the pages section at the right side of the home page.

    You might also pray through the Breakthrough Prayer. It is a good starting point when needing to sever demonic attachments or break generational curses.

    As for the octopus, it is symbolic of the type of spirit it is. It is often a mind blinding, controlling spirit that comes from someone in a person's life that is trying to manipulate or control them. Often the use of toxic shame, guilt, fear and intimidation or heavy handed authority figures use these sort of tactics to try to control others. An octopus spirit can operate anywhere.

      I ran across a prayer that cuts octupus spirits.
      I had never heard of thing so I searched to see what it meant before continuing the prayer.
      Thank you for such a clear and accurate explanation.
      I will play the prayer as well as pray the ones you suggested.
