Has anyone used blood sacrifice to communicate with the gods? I feel lifeblood is very potent in mystical endeavors

Don't ever do this because it will attract parasites, imposters and demons. You'll more likely attract a fat etheric insect sucking out your lifeforce than Odin's favor.

You think the gods will just let these parasites swarm to you? What good are they if they won't protect their own?

I'm just speaking from experience that blood will attract all the astral fauna in the area to you. It's a massive outburst of the pure lifeforce. It's like honey to ants. 
>You think the gods will just let
To let you learn you're making a mistake? yes.
Also, now that you've heard the warning, are they bound to protect you if you do something stupid?
Consider also that one of the foremost problems people have in working with spirits is imposters. Even the most terrifying demons have imposters.

Also, to a lot of cultures, interactions with blood ruins ritual purity, and I suspect this is because blood attracts spiritual spooks which are miasmic by nature.

No, not to protect you.

I have no reason to believe what you're saying or to believe in any 'astral parasites, demons, tricksters.' You're just re-orienting what the gods want around your beliefs rather than addressing my challenge- that the gods would just abandon you to these parasites. What, do you really think saging, banishing, visualization, any of this crap saves you from spiritual entities? 

>Consider also that one of the foremost problems people have in working with spirits is imposters
There's no way to differentiate between an impostor and the real deal, there's no way to know the limits of what the impostors can or cannot do, it all relies on the goodness and preemptive action of the gods, whom you disable by just relegating them to some tutelary distance- 'they just let you make mistake. They won't teach you or help you, they'll just give you 'warnings' through dubious posts by anons and possibly false, fabricated or malicious teachings that could be devised by gurus/teachers/spiritualists possessed by the very same parasites/demons they claim to teach you to fight.' 

There's always a switcheroo, they're always a step ahead of you. You've ever argued with a Christian about demons? It's the same thing here.
