It just means statistically, the markets are likely to go lower before they go higher.

That is incorrect. When VIX is at low levels, market direction is completely uncorrelated with VIX direction. It isn't even necessary to look very far back to see an excellent example of this: the entire mid-late 90s bull run was done with VIX *rising* from the same very low levels we're seeing today.
