From the top of my head, I can tell you about two major meanings:
First one is "to think" E.g. I suppose he has already arrived home.
The second one is "to image something" E.g. Suppose you won a million tomorrow, what would you do? - this is a part of subjunctive mood, "suppose" is always placed at the beginning of the sentences.
Hope it helps :)

Example: I suppose you will tell me when it’s time for dinner.

Example: I suppose you're right.
Example: Suppose we go to the movie now…will that work for your schedule?
