Yes, of course, it is "objective" but still Plato believed in the possible transmigration of the "soul" and he mentioned "objective" in the sense that the belief in a soul would create social virtues.
This was refuted by the actual events of the Athenian siege.
Also, Plato in the MENO dialogue mentions the soul as immortal and it possibly could transmigrate. If you read the dialogue passage you could see that modern psychology answers his questioning concerning his concept of the "soul".
