Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits along an arrow sum to the digit in the attached circle.
Shade some cells such that:
- The digits 1,2,3 are always shaded.
- The digits 7,8,9 are never shaded.
- The shading is symmetrical, reflected in row 5.
- The shading is symmetrical, reflected in the positive diagonal ( ╱ ).
Enjoy!

The way the symmetry worked in this puzzle was fascinating.

took a bit of thinking to get the break-in, but very pleasing resolution! probably would have made it easier if I read the title of the puzzle again...

Very cool concept!
I started of using column 5 instead of row 5, but then realized it didn't make a difference. Same would apply to the diagonal.

Very fun! Love the group theory connection. Challenging break-in but felt very logical and smooth after that :)

This was really cool. I found the start to be tough to wrap my head around what was being asked, but once I adapted myself to your reality, it was a tricky, weird, and reasonable journey to the finish line. Very well done!

Fine tuned to perfection again.
Awesomely minimalistic and unbelievably innovative witchcraft.
This is a cosmic class achievement. More than just "very nice."

Brilliant idea! Love how the symmetry rule plays such a big part throughout. At first it really doesn't seem like the 5 arrows will be enough to populate the grid, especially with the ambiguity over the middly digits. There is a miraclesque quality here, just like in your first puzzle.
Fantastic execution and a pretty finished result! Merry Christmas
