Magical female left out of group (5)

I believe the answer is:

circe

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'magical female' is the definition.
'circe' can be an answer for 'female' (I have seen 'Enchanting female' mean 'circe' so perhaps 'female' could also mean 'circe'). I am unsure of the 'magical' bit.

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for circe that I've seen before include "Enchanting female" , "She bewitched Odysseus's men" , "Odyssey sorceress" , "Greek sorceress who detained Odysseus on her island" , "she's into 20 [WITCHCRAFT]" .)
