As part of the species, as an incomplete substance, the separate soul is not hypostasis, but the being on which the person is based belongs to it in property and, in this sense, conserves a personal nature. On the other hand, even separated, the soul is still essentially linked as a form of its own material, keeping the formative virtue. For both reasons we can say– from the viewpoint of Metaphysical Anthropology– that the separate soul has a natural tendency– although as desiderium conditionatum– to reunite with its body, demanding by nature what it was missing to reconstruct in person, something else needed to guarantee in its right order the same immortality of the soul.
