Near the rim the temptation looms soon, at the bottom an old, deep malice takes root; by the handle the danger lurks within your own home, opposite it springs from a stranger.
Devil — At the rim (near future)
On the rim the devil warns of a near temptation or an imminent strike; someone is secretly plotting harm against you in the near term, so stay watchful.
Devil — In the middle (present)
In the middle the devil shows an evil scheme festering around you through these weeks; a hidden plot runs right through your daily life, yet it can still be exposed.
Devil — At the base (distant/hidden)
At the base the devil sits as a deep-rooted, long-hidden evil; an old enmity or a concealed vice works from the depths until fate drags it into the light.
Devil — At the handle (yourself, home)
By the handle the devil brings the danger into your closest circle; beware that the ill intent comes from your own household or from someone you trust.

What does seeing a devil in the saucer mean?

Perhaps someone in your past worked against you in secret, and the traces still linger. The comfort is this: what happened in concealment will yet be revealed by fate.
Is the devil a good or bad omen?
The devil is at first a warning, rather unfavorable sign, for it points to secret hostility. Yet it is not a verdict on your fate but a hint to stay watchful and keep your heart pure. The comforting side: since fate unmasks every scheme in the end, you are not left helpless against evil.
What does it mean if the devil appears near the rim of the cup?
If the devil appears near the upper rim of the cup, the secret threat is not distant but imminent. Someone close to you may soon reveal their ill intentions. Be especially watchful in the coming days, for fate is about to lift the mask.
