A magic mirror is a word that reads the same when the letters are written in reverse order and magically transformed  A to Z, B to Y, C to X, etc. Some examples are BEVY, GRIT, and VOLE.

[Note from JA: It helps if you can visualize the alphabet in reverse:

ABCD E FGH I  JKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ZYXWVUT S RQPONMLKJ I HGFE DCBA

BEVY     GRIT     VOLE
YVEB     TI RG    ELOV ]

Can you think of a familiar six-letter English word, not a plural, that is a magic mirror?

HINTS from JA:
#1: You have to be this to solve this.
#2: It has an A and a Z in the middle.

Answer:

WIZARD     (WI ZAR D
                       D RAZ I W )
