If something is holy (divined by a god of some sort), than it’s magical. It may even have magical powers. Also, someone who is holy is somehow chosen by a god to be classified as holy over the rest of us.
If not, what would be so special about it? I could care less if it’s holy, if it doesn’t do anything.
I like bettierage’s answer.

Holy is hallowed, sacred, set apart, free from sin, pure in heart, immaculate in moral character, perfect in moral sense otherwise known as righteous.
Holy is a character reference of God and can be a character reference of man. Man can become holy, made so by God and unable to be so without God.

Holy comes from the latin or greek root word meaning "whole or complete". (I think.)

It is not an outward look but having a right heart before God.
