Q - Should we be prepping for some kind of shutdown?
No.
Reports of 'power grid' attacks (6 mo prep) should be disregarded. While attacks do occur, we are safeguarded by a 'Black Eye'. Q
Hoping someone knows what Black Eye is. It is intriguing to me so I’ve been looking with little success other than the following tidbits.
Leads me to feel that it may be some kind of protective satellite or space telescope? While I doubt we would be able to find information about a secret satellite...
1. Eye of Horus symbol with black eye makeup (Black Eye?)
An ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, royal power, and good health.
2. Some satellites have been named Horus
STARE (Space-Based Telescopes for Actionable Refinement of Ephemeris) are a series of three-unit CubeSats that will demonstrate the main elements of a new concept for tracking orbiting space debris.
STARE is a project of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories. The STARE satellites are using the Boeing-built Colony II bus developed under a contract with the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO).
The second pathfinder, STARE-B or Horus, implementing a full set of reaction wheels for attitude control and a more sensitive imager, is manifested to launch on the ORS-3 mission (with STPSat-3) and launched in November of 2013. The satellite was successfully deployed in orbit, but no signals were received.
And another...
The High-ORbit Ultraviolet-visible Satellite, HORUS
The core HORUS design will provide wide field of view imagery and high efficiency point source far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectroscopy using a combination of spectral selection and field sharing.

Blackstart Capability Plan
Wikipedia Definition
A black start is the process of restoring an electric power station or a part of an electric grid to operation without relying on the external electric power transmission network.Normally, the electric power used within the plant is provided from the station's own generators. If all of the plant's main generators are shut down, station service power is provided by drawing power from the grid through the plant's transmission line. However, during a wide-area outage, off-site power from the grid is not available. In the absence of grid power, a so-called black start needs to be performed to bootstrap the power grid into operation.To provide a black start, some power stations have small diesel generators, normally called the black start diesel generator (BSDG), which can be used to start larger generators (of several megawatts capacity), which in turn can be used to start the main power station generators.
Hoping someone here with expertise knows what Black Eye is...
You mentioned “Black Start” capability, and I don’t think that’s what Q was referring to when he mentioned ‘black eye’.
Utilities have all kinds of black start generators in their systems, usually hydro generation or Gas turbines that don’t require a large amount of startup power. Our entity has 4 designated plants with this capability, but there are about a dozen more that probably can do it but aren’t tested periodically and so are not designated as “black start’.
Your mention of the “black start diesel” is true - a nearby hydro plant that is designated “black start capable’ has a small diesel that is first started to bring up control systems and lighting in the plant so that the operator can bring a generator up without outside power. I’ve not toured any black start CT plants, but I suspect that the scheme is similar.
True story - during the tornado outbreak of 2011, there was an area in Alabama that was electrically isolated from the rest of the grid - there was no way to tie it to the interconnected power grid because tornadoes had taken down all the transmission ties. But there was a hydroelectric plant in the area that was black-started and served to provide a source of power for the area until some of the transmission assets could be rebuilt and returned to service.
Granted, the source wasn’t large, but the area was so hammered by tornadoes that the demand for power was also pretty small.
