Hi Sunshine10,
What kind of an orchid is it? Some have much longer flowering seasons than others. If its Phalaenopsis it can go on for several months but as Steveg says there is not much to do except wait for it to produce a new flowering stalk.

Nothing we have one in the kitchen window for about 4/5 years and it flowers when it feels like it and the rest of the time it just looks dead water it about once a month when not flowering and dead looking.
