I am an admitted newbie. Can someone tell me what it means when a provider calls herself a 'goddess?'

Thanks.

some of the obvious (e.g. she believes she's gorgeous, she's a 'diva', etc.), I'm not sure there is any specific meaning within the hobby.

Maybe someone else knows more.
Any help out there?

Often, Tantrika's refer to themselves as goddesses.

If the girls site doesn't mention Tantra specifically, then it doesn't mean anything.  Just a marketing buzzword.

in her own mind!!!

It just makes her sound like she's full of herself. In that kind of situation, when you meet her, it's going to be alllll about her. Hardly a gfe, unless you're looking for a gfe which mimics reality.

and was a starfuc*er?  You know, if you couldn't advance her reputation in some way she wouldn't even give you a look?

Great ladies, 10's in looks and personality, simply exude it, they don't need to blast it from the mountain tops.  Those that advertise as "goddess" are trying to make up for a lack of something.

Kornlover said it well, they are legends in their own mind.

mistress, where her clients partake in some sort of worshipping her, i.e.: foot or toe buttocks, or body worship.
Normally the client will refer to her as a Goddess, and themselves as slaves.
