Why would my Christmas Cactus stop blooming after 9 years?

Question

My Christmas cactus has flowered consistently every November and every March since 2010. This March, however, I see no signs of buds even forming. I haven’t treated the plant any differently, and otherwise it looks healthy. Why would it stop blooming? Thank you for your expertise!

It does look healthy. You are lucky you get blooms in November and March! Perhaps your plant wants a much needed rest. It's hard to say what may have changed in its environment, but perhaps getting it on a cycle will help. Here is an article that may help:
