One of the reasons for this is that locomotion, as Aristotle submits, affects the least the substance, the ousia of the object undergoing motion (Physics 8.7, 261a20f).

The definition of motion as the actuality of a potentiality of the entity undergoing motion in so far as it is potential requires that in each case the passive potentiality for the change is present in the changing object.

Our undergoing change, however, Averroes quickly added, only results from the heavens' undergoing motion, and should per impossibile the heavens cease moving, then we would no longer undergo change.

Consequently, although our awareness of time is associated immediately with our undergoing change, and so we can be aware of time even though we are not aware of any particular extra-mental motion, time itself is associated with the motion of the heavens that is the ultimate cause of our undergoing motion, and so time is one and not multiplied.

See e.g. Aristotle's elucidation of the definition of motion at Physics 3.2, 201a27-29, where the actuality of a potentiality in so far as it is itself (hêi auto) is contrasted to its actuality in so far as it is capable of undergoing motion (hêi kinêton).
