Red diamond shaped craft, yellow light in the middle.

My friend and I left my house to take a walk around 8 pm. About 10 min into our walk, we reached a street that allowed us to look over the treeline. I looked to my right when I saw a large, diamond-shaped object ascending from the horizon in the west. It was red with a yellow light in the middle of it, at first it looked like a ball of fire. It was blurry, but definitely a diamond shape. It slowly ascended above the trees, then began to come our way. This craft didn't make any noise what so ever. When it was directly over us, it was only about 1000 ft in the air. Although it was close to us it was still blurry as if it had an aura around it. After it passed over us going toward the east, it quickly ascended further into the sky. As we watched it disappear, it twinkled like a star then it was gone.
