Can't say I've ever heard of an octopus in the stars, either. In any culture. We need more info than just "two stars for eyes" to take this further, sorry.

Edit: Just checked in Julius D. W. Staal's book "Patterns in the Sky" and it mentions one octopus from the Marshall Islands using the stars of Orion, but there are no bright stars marking its eyes (the picture provided looks pretty random to me).
