Smaller Angraecums are high-humidity orchids. They can be difficult in low-humidity homes unless in a terrarium. Perhaps consider putting them in a very tall glass vase or hurricane lamp glass?

Most monopodial orchids are in continuous growth when temperatures are correct, so you could repot or mount now.

I might consider repotting as it was done with this plant before - leave it in the current pot, thread the roots through the openings of a larger basket pot, and add a little more medium.

It's hard to care for mounts in a typical home environment with humidity as low as yours. The wicking mount would help. Monopodials on mounts generally need watering at least once a day, often more.
