Hello.
I've downloaded the wasy font package from CTAN and wish to use for
astronomical symbols. However, I have absolutely no experience with
packages such as this. How do I go about install this package? I'm using
the latest version of emTeX.

You need the style file wasysym.sty and also Uwasy.fd from the CTAN,
I think.
Then you just say, eg

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{wasysym}

\begin{document}

This is \earth.

\[
\venus \neq \mars
\]

\end{document}
