I suggest thicker and zoom. Fill 15/16ths of the field with the symbol. The outer edge double in thickness, the rest scaled up to fit.... and maybe a different angle between the elements would make it less confusing.

I think that makes it alot more obvious that its not constructed like a crossbow - that almost-right-angle junction throws my eyes and comprehension for a loop.
