We apply Feynman's principle, ``The same equations have the same solutions'', to Kepler's problem and show that Newton's dynamics in a properly curved 3-D space is identical with that described by Einstein's theory in the 3-D optical geometry of Schwarzschild's spacetime. For this reason, rather unexpectedly, Newton's formulae for Kepler's problem, in the case of nearly circular motion in a static, spherically spherical gravitational potential accurately describe strong field general relativistic effects, in particular vanishing of the radial epicyclic frequency at the marginally stable orbit.

Orbital Motion in Spacetimes Influenced by the Presence of Scalar and Electromagnetic Fields
Strong scalar fields around naked singularities can create stable circular orbits, and charged scalar-field spacetimes can host both stable and unstable photon orbits.
