I do not think the red star was Earendil. Earendil's is identified with Venus, which is whitish, and the light from Galadriel's phial is whitish, and the light of the star is to match that of the simaril, which is a mixture of white and gold.
The omen of a 'red star on the horizon' is obvious to any with exposure to Mediteranean mythologies and sybolism: "War is comming".
