I think you mean heading, not header.

Headers are repeating elements at the top of something, such as a page header or table header.

The Article tag's definition is that it designates a self-contained portion of a larger document. It is a grouping or container tag that encompasses, by definition, other tagged elements such as P and Hx tags.

To me, the relationship is already explicit because the Hx tag is within the Article tag.
