Re: 12th position = 1st Flat Position

F minor is not the relative minor of A Major

F# minor is the relative minor of A Major.

First Flat is a good term for F minor on a C Harp because postition refers to 
the root note (F) of the scale, not it's quality (Major or Minor)

Thinking of any major scale, you can get minor from the same root note by 
flatting the 3rd (melodic minor) (and the 7th(dorian), 
6th(aeolian)...9th(phrygian),5th(locrian)) ect...depending on the scale quality you want...try flatting 
the 3rd and 6th but not the 7th...this will give you harmonic minor.

I would recommend that you study music theory on the piano or guitar and then 
apply it to the harp.
