At this time of year, Christmas cacti are reluctant to flower if

keep
the pot in the same position facing a window as turning it will
encourage the flower buds to twist off.

It wants an annual outdoor holiday: leave it outside, unwatered, (and
keep the slugs off) under a north wall or somewhere shady from June
to September, then bring it in. I don't think the mantelpiece is
likely to be light enough for it; but it may be OK as it's a
south-facing room. But a south windowsill is bad.

Yours probably wants a slightly bigger pot by now.
