This paper describes a new interpretation of relativity. The concept of rest frames of the observer and the object clarifies the initial assumptions used in General Relativity and underlines the necessity to review whatever impacts relativity. Relativistic view effects, calculated using reciprocal Lorentz factors and deflecting the paths of photons, are examined in addition to interactions. The Ehrenfest paradox is solved, and it is not compatible with a curved space. View effects specific to each point of view are the solution. The concept of a seen speed is introduced. The calculation of the deflection of light by the sun explains in detail why the deflection angle must be double the value obtained with Newton’s laws. This is due to gravitation as well as to relativistic view effects. As already noted by Einstein the deflection of light can only take place if the speed of light varies in vacuum. This is done by gravitation. The compatibility of General Relativity with the new interpretation is discussed. The main argument for this compatibility is due to the use in General Relativity of a Pseudo-Riemannian geometry describing intrinsic views which introduce the rest frame concept. They are compatible with view effects. Differences subsist mainly regarding energy. Relativistic energy is examined. The relationship of Special Relativity between speed and energy is confirmed for electromagnetism where path speeds are limited to the speed of light. Such speed limits do not apply to gravitation where total energy is composed of rest mass energy plus a kinetic energy as defined in classical mechanics. When gravitation acts on objects that transfer their path information by light, the paths of the photons will be deflected by relativistic view effects modifying that information. View effects are optical illusions interpreted in General Relativity as interactions introducing dark energy.
