Yes, it is safe, but more difficult to handle. Get it fixed as soon as possible.
It is not illegal to drive without power steering. Many people who drive very old cars do not have power steering.

In the power steering pump
A 1991 VW Jetta's power steering reservoir is located towards the front of the engine bay. The unit can be seen placed on top of the power steering pump.
This 2006 Jetta press release says that the Jetta has "electro-mechanical steering." That means there is no power steering fluid as is needed for a hydraulic power steering system. Electro-mechanical offers fuel savings, as there is no hydraulic pump that is driven all the time.
No.
Power steering fluid is needed to keep the power steering operating correctly. However in an emergency you can still steer the vehicle without power steering fluid, it is just really hard to turn the wheel without the power assist.
Yes, but steering will be harder.
CHF11S type power steering fluid is recommended for the 1995 Volkswagen Jetta. Make sure not to overfill the fluid container.
The newer VW's have a electro mechanic steering system so there is no power steering reservoir typically found in hydraulic steering systems.
To drive a vehicle with disabled power steering would be difficult and not safe for you and others.
