It shares the same root as "magus," a member of a priestly caste of ancient Persia. The plural of "magus" is "magi," as in the three "wise men" who brought gifts to the infant Jesus. Superstitions of the time held that learned men could be sorcerers, owing to the human trait to fear that which we don't understand.
