The safest time to take a break is between projects, I think. Taking a break in the middle of a project could kill it, there is too much of the project still in your head, held in 'working memory'. As long as the characters still live in your mind you won't lose that, but when you stop writing and are no longer reinforcing the machinery of the story by thinking about it every day, you lose that working memory.
The danger of taking any break is never coming back from the break. I can't see a reason for asking this question unless that possibility worries you. I wouldn't worry much, if writing really is fun for you, then returning to it should be fun too.
