Crossword Genius

Spell ‘whirl’ (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turn

I believe this clue is a double definition.

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

'whirl' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for turn that I've seen before include "Go; reverse" , "Rotate for a performer's act" , "Shock - move - change course" , "Change direction" , "fit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
