Whether the separate human soul can move bodies at least locally?

❌ Objection 1 : It seems that the separate human soul can move bodies at least locally. For a body naturally obeys a spiritual substance as to local motion, as stated above (Question [110], Article [5]). But the separate soul is a spiritual substance. Therefore it can move exterior bodies by its command.

❌ Objection 2 : Further, in the Itinerary of Clement it is said in the narrative of Nicetas to Peter, that Simon Magus, by sorcery retained power over the soul of a child that he had slain, and that through this soul he worked magical wonders. But this could not have been without some corporeal change at least as to place. Therefore, the separate soul has the power to move bodies locally.
