What does the soil feel like? Regardless of how many weeks you've had it, always check the soil to determine when you should water a plant. With cactus, it's always best to err on the side of underwatering than overwatering.
You may already know this, but I always let folks know when they post about a moon cactus...it's actually two separate plants, with the top one grafted onto the bottom one. It's relying on it for nutrients since it lacks any chlorophyll and can't produce its own food. Eventually the top plant will start to wither and die off, but after that happens you can continue growing and caring for the bottom plant (dragon fruit cactus).

It’s relatively dry, but there’s still a bit of moisture.
