Crossword Genius

Magic turn (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spell

I believe this is a double definition.

'magic' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'turn' is the second definition.
('spell' can be a synonym of 'turn')

(Other definitions for spell that I've seen before include "Letter by letter, read out" , "Put letters in right order" , "Formula believed to have magical force" , "Magical charm; period" , "Period of time - bewitching utterance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
