Actually, it is equally valid to be applied to both good and evil.
The definition is:
1. A phenomenon supposed to portend good or evil; a prophetic sign.
2. Prognostication; portent: birds of ill omen.
Wow ! That's a mouthful !
Perhaps some examples --

It is a prediction that usually means something bad is about to happen. It can be perceived as a sign or a feeling.
