The meaning of it as usually given is that one's mind, if left idle, will explore those dark things that a busy mind would not. In practice, it usually turns out that an idle mind does little more than watch Jerry Springer or read The National Enquirer....

The actual quote is, " An idle mind is the Devil's workshop". Meaning the Devil needs an inactive mind to start his handywork. His work being to put sinful thoughts into one's mind. Of course these sinful thoughts can cause sinful actions as well, which is what he is looking for.

I think this saying speaks to the people who have no goals or aspirations. Because of that chosen lifestyle they are more or less floating through life like a feather in the wind.
A person who has no desire to do anything constructive is often available for the opposite. Deconstructive. I think the saying champions structure within a person’s life, and emphasizes that a life without structure is readily open for disaster.
