Curious sorceress, turned up, pocketing money (9)
I believe the answer is:
eccentric
'curious' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'sorceress turned up pocketing money' is the wordplay.
'sorceress' becomes 'circe' (figure of Greek myth).
'turned up' is a reversal indicator.
'pocketing' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'money' becomes 'cent' (eg denomination of dollars).
'circe' reversed gives 'ecric'.
'ecric' placed around 'cent' is 'ECCENTRIC'.
(Other definitions for eccentric that I've seen before include "Unconventional and slightly strange" , "Capricious" , "Unconventionanl or unusual" , "Quirky" , "Odd - nuts" .)
